  1. It seems to me a reservoir in Northern Boone County would make more sense then depriving the rest of the state South of Lafayette of water during drought conditions like we are facing now.

    1. Michael D., Our government officials have shown no regard for the residents of Boone County. We do not matter. The environment does not matter. All they care about is political gain and money. This poorly planned far-fetched disaster is already displacing residents who have built their homes and lives on the thousands of acres that have been part of this land grab. It is also destroying the quality of life for those of us living in the area. So yes, let’s suggest a giant reservoir so the rest of us in the northern part of the county can see our homes and properties flooded and disappear in the name of corporate and politics greed. Everyone who reads about what is happening in Boone Co. needs to take a step back and think about the people who actually live here. Also, you never know what county the state might try to invade next. It might be in your backyard.
