Opponents Should Visit Dam They Might Fight For One Here
Jim Wilson, a Batavia realtor and East Fork Reservoir supporter, travels to Monroe Reservoir in Indiana to compare projects and urges Clermont County opponents to visit Bedford near Bloomington. He says the East Fork site offers strong park development potential with 15,400 acres planned for recreation and wildlife, plus a 955,000 annual visitation forecast rising to over four million if developed as a state park. He outlines dam specs, land needs, and future expansion ideas to protect the area from development while noting access routes and recreational facilities planned around the East Fork Reservoir project.
