Danny Boy's Dilemma: LBC Closing

Right before the summer season started, it was announced that Little Black Creek will be closing from July 1, 2012 to September 1, 2012. It is being said that the Lamar County Supervisors have withdrawn their membership in the Pat Harrison Waterway District and the $390,000 membership payment. That took a big chunk out of the $790,000 that was spent at the water park. It is said that the Lamar County Supervisors did not have a vote or any say in the decisions that are being made and felt the $390,000 could be spent elsewhere. Well, the matter is going to court, but for the moment, the Little Black Creek Water Park will be closed during the summer/waterparking season. So, I think we will see Danny Davis' name back on the City of Lumberton's agenda for next month to be re-hired as Public Works Director. Last year, Davis left after submitting a one day notice to the City of Lumberton to take a job at Little Black Creek. With the pending closure of the park, I think he'll be back on the City of Lumberton's payroll as a full time employee. Since leaving the city, Davis never left the city's payroll because he's still getting paid to maintain our water reports and that duty fell on him again after Ben Barrett, Jr. left the city without notice.
