MONTGOMERY, Ala. - The Montgomery City Council agreed to put up to $10 million toward the new whitewater rafting project on Tuesday.
The councilman believes it is best to finish the project rather than put it on pause, citing the value of additional tourism. He feels the dollars are an investment into the future of Montgomery, although the mayor was quick to point out the city will not be writing a multimillion dollar check.
