(Austin, TX) Waller Creek Whitewater Trail Urban Revitalization through Aquatic Recreation

On November 15th The Waller Creek Whitewater Trail will be presenting a commercial venture scheme to the City of Austin, Texas’ Waller Creek Citizen’s Advisory Committee.
 
Our assertion is that that Aquatic Recreation will create the tourism traffic to overpower and revitalize the currently entrenched urban blight along the Waller Creek development corridor.
 
Our business plan calls for serving 100,000 rafting customers and attracting 1,000,000 spectators to the course each year.
 
We will be proposing in effect to lease Waller Creek from the city to operate aquatic recreation activities (including whitewater rafting, buying and operating all equipment, securing insurances, etc. )
 
Our immediate goal is to encourage the Advisory Committee to leave the door open to a future whitewater trail, simply by choosing compatible streambed design options as they move forward with the Waller Creek Tunnel flood control construction.
 
We also would fund a $30K feasibility study for the Whitewater Trail.
