Remember all the planted "Chattanooga Story" puff pieces the City arranged for starting in the mid-80's?
"We used to be polluted but we're clean as a whistle now."
"Smokestacks gone; Environmental City now."
"Celebrate the Riverfront in America's Best Mid-Sized City."
How come, until now, news & information about the highly infectous running sewers we call rivers, streams & creeks never made the orchestrated news about our city? My theory: the City has been co-mingling monies supposedly dedicated to sewage, waste water & storm water runoff with general funds & has lost the money that would have paid for proper sanitary solutions a long time ago.
