Wisconsin Dells Resorts Struggling Economically Advances Poverty

Wisconsin Dells area residents are questioning if the diversion of publicly collected funds from residents needs - and giving these huge sums of money to private business operators is further impoverishing the area.  The Village of Lake Delton has crafted a political structure that enables large sums of publicly collected money to be diverted from the needs of residents and given to private business operators.

Wisconsin Dells area business operators are suggesting there is an unequal quality to this current practice of giving public money collected for the needs of the residents to selected private business operators.  Recall the family who operates the Kalahari Resort received 10 million publicly collected dollars to construct a convention center.  The family who operates the Noah's Ark has received 1.5 million dollars to build new housing for the J1VISA Immigration population.  The family who operates the La Quinta Del Sol Hotel received 1.8 million dollars.  This is publicly collected money being diverted from the needs of residents and given to private business operators.

With annual visitation numbers falling lower than ever the Village of Lake Delton is crafting the High End Attraction Incentive Program - this will provide free publicly collected money to the struggling resorts for updating and improving their amusements and attractions.  This is publicly collected money being diverted from the needs of residents and given to private business operators.

The residents of the Wisconsin Dells area - seeing no valid return with this giving of high sums of money away to private business operators - now believe this is further impoverishing the Wisconsin Dells area.
