The Lawrenceburg City Council held a work session on April 25, 2025, where members discussed the status of a significant project that has raised concerns among council members. The primary focus of the meeting was a motion to pause the project until further financial details and transparency could be provided.

One council member expressed strong support for the project, emphasizing the need for clarity on costs before proceeding. They highlighted previous investments in the community, such as a $35 million flyover bridge and a $52,000 event center, arguing that selling the riverfront could be beneficial. However, they insisted that the council must have accurate financial estimates to move forward confidently.

The discussion led to a motion to freeze the project until the council received satisfactory answers to their questions regarding funding and costs. The motion was seconded and approved by a majority vote, indicating a collective desire for more information before making further commitments.

This decision reflects the council's commitment to transparency and fiscal responsibility as they navigate the complexities of the project. The next steps will involve gathering the necessary financial data to inform future discussions and decisions regarding the initiative.
