Oval gives little return

The Editor, Another expertly fudged report, this is council's best yet. But, of course, it should be, council has been fudging them for 10 years now.

The Editor,

Another expertly fudged report, this is council's best yet. But, of course, it should be, council has been fudging them for 10 years now.

The transfer of the casino's revenue of $5 million, plus the Legacy contribution of $3 million and the taxpayers' contribution of another $3 million makes a total of $11 million spent on the Owe-val (I wish Council would get the spelling correct).

BUT the Owe-val made a profit of $3 million. That's it - a $3-million return on an $11-million investment.

I'm surprised that Senators Duffy and Wallin didn't contact Richmond City Council to look after their financial affairs. Then they wouldn't be in the mess they are in now.
