RESOLUTION 2002-25
CREEK WALK (PEAK CREEK PROJECT)
WHEREAS, the town of Pulaski has discussed embarking on a project to build and create a walk-
way through the downtown area on the banks of Peak Creek;
WHEREAS, it would be necessary to obtain a number of properties from individuals and
businesses to construct said walkway and in many cases the legal title to said properties are not subject to
an easy determination.
WHEREAS, it would be necessary to change the nature and character of Peak Creek itself in
order to make the creek an aesthetically pleasing tourist attraction, the costs of which are undoubtedly
significant and unknown;
WHEREAS, no economic benefit analysis has been performed to provide data that supports that
tourists will actually use a walkway nor that such a walkway would attract citizens to downtown Pulaski;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that all planning, title work and other preparations
towards the Creek Walk (Peak Creek Project) be abandoned
FURTHER, that no additional local funding be expended toward the Creek Walk (Peak Creek
Project).
FURTHER, that any and all funds appropriated toward this project be returned to the General
Fund.
This resolution shall be deemed effective immediately upon its passage.
