The SACC Annual Holiday Parade has lots of lights, music & entertainment including a visit by Santa! People from all over the area line the streets of downtown Saline for this holiday favorite. With more than 100 parade participants from animals, dancers & musicians, and even a hot air balloon, there is something there for everyone to enjoy!

Moderate rain, with a high of 50 and low of 20 degrees. Overcast in the morning, light freezing rain in the afternoon and evening, patchy rain nearby overnight.
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
