Cedar Rapids Faces Funding Gap For Squaw Creek Park Lake
City officials say no current funds exist to back a planned 1.25 million dollar lake in Squaw Creek Park while Linn County Conservation Board pushes for 200000 from the city. The project relies on multiple funding sources including federal revenue sharing, supervisor loans, and a conservation fund. Marion is studying contributions, with a special council meeting planned. Public input at a Monday hearing drew sparse attendance as engineers note some siltation and water level concerns.
