The Saline Area Historical Society will once again be part of the US-12 Heritage Yard Sale this weekend, Aug 13-14, at the historic Rentschler Farm Museum, located at 1265 E. Michigan Ave.
This beautiful farm museum is one of the more popular stops along "Michigan's longest yard sale," with 24 vendors offering antiques, collectibles, gifts and crafts. The event runs from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. this Friday and Saturday.
Sunny, with a high of 37 and low of 16 degrees. Sunny during the morning, clear during the afternoon and evening,
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.
