The Taj is now $11+M Over Budget?
Orono’s “Taj Mahal” Public Works Facility
Why so BIG Orono? Why add on an additional 30,000 square feet when our population hasn’t grown but 1% a year?
Why so BIG Orono? Having to bond for this has created interest payments of $6 million over 25 years.
The grand total of the Public Works Building is $24.3+ million. This project is already over budget. How will Mr. Walsh come up with another TEN Million Dollars?
And what happens to the existing public works building? Maybe it can become a pickleball community center?That’s a great question to ask at the next City Council meeting!
