Savannah City Council Downs Cruise Ship Terminal Proposal
Press release from the issuing company
Monday, July 1st, 2013
After four years of study, two reports costing $327,000 and considerable public outcry, the future of a cruise terminal in Savannah sank Thursday.
Savannah City Council voted unanimously to deny funding to the next stage of a cruise terminal study, effectively ending debate on the issue.
“I am extremely concerned about the experience of other cities making such a large investment in something that as far as I’m concerned is speculative,” said Alderwoman-at-large Carol Bell. “And the other thing, I’m not sure a real business case has been made.”
