Kevin Hafenstein, a Redding native who sings tenor for the Los Angeles Opera, hopes to sink $7 million to $10 million into developing an upscale hotel on the site of the Casa Blanca Motel.

Wow! With the wasted $20 million, the park could have built two or three hotels and then had the profits to make the park free of government subsidies.

You are getting desperate. Had the park built hotels you would be bitching about the lack of customers. It's just one project and it's putting nearly a third of the cost of the park back into the community. There will be more.

...if anybody actually wanted to stay in Redding for any length of time. Which they don't. ;)
