Also, we need to be saving more money so we can at least trim around the mountain.....

Well I've got about $105K saved up but $75K of that will go to the stadium IIRC.

[Nubclear]

Yeah well...we'll need about a million before we can actually tear the mountain itself down.

one-hundred twenty-five-thousand simoleans wasted by the mitchell administration

did you at least get rid of the dump that was polluting the water before you did that?

Er....We do need the money. Saving is always a good thing, especially since we have a HUGE MOUNTAIN in the middle preventing development

[mrmitchell]

Damn! ****.

(note; I didn't spend the money at all. Just saved it, so not really that "wasted" considering I was trying to build residential at hte same time. was not sure on Tassadar's plans for Tassagrad, so did not construct a lot around there.)

[Space05us]

no you wasted it when you destroyed the incinerators that cost 75000 each

[Nubclear]

Incinerators

Play the turn!

[Space05us]

Sims everywhere jump ship...

...as they learn mrmitchells administration is not far off, with three nuclear power plants that cant be good.

[Space05us]

incinerators are 7500 each sorry

and recycling centers just became available

note: Residential demand plummeted in November of '69 so its up to you to fix tass

[mrmitchell]

incinerators are 7500 each sorry

Tassadar, please wait to fix pollution so I can say I did something good during my term

Why make agreements? IRL mayors are always trying to correct their predecessors "errors" and policies flip from one direction to another. It should be fun to see how the city had distinct imprints of each of its mayors.

BTW, can I take the next turn?

Sure. Just remember to read the thread!

Alright, here we go again....

Inherited Situation:
-A MAJOR RESIDENTIAL DEPRESSION OMFG!!!!! I mean theres only a small sliver thant isn't going down.
-Finances continue to go up.
-Our population pyramid is lookng better
-Turns out my high-land area was a stunning sucess!
-My rail system has been expanded. Glory.
-I'm glad to see our previous unclean power sources are being phased out in favor of nuclear power.
-Our elementary schools are crowded.

The first thing I am going to do is place the University right in Tassagrad We also have a theme park, but its too expensive at the moment.
I'm also going to build a new school near Tassagrad, as well as a hospital there.
I'm activating Free Clinics (To Increase health), Mandetory Smoke Detectors (To lower flammibility), Industrial Waste Disposal Tax (Cleaner industries will move in), Industrial Polutant Impact Fee (Same), Backyard Composting (Environment), and Electronic Jobs Fair (to increase clean industries).
This reduced income to about 28,000 a year.
February and residential is still plummeting.
March and finally its going back up! Yay!
Traffic problems have been completly eliminated, which is good.
Schools are all going great, which is good.
July and residential demand is SKYROCKETING. I'm zoning a bunch! I'm noticing that Fire Coverage is a bit poor, so I build a fire station in a caping hole. Tore down a residential building but they'll survive.
There really isn't much I can do but save money, so thats what I'm doing. I've also increased funding to their maximums.
Due to high crime, I've built a couple more police stations and another jail. Residential demand is still skyrocketing.
I'm getting complaints that there aren't any highways here...So I'll do some research on them and see if they are actually worth it. And they aren't, so I don't build any.
Hmm....I want to go for a more futurisitc approach, so...Let's build subways! I determine the cost to be perhaps about 40,000 and determine this to be acceptable due to the financial situation.
Er...The cost was slightly more than expected, totaling in at about 70,000. We'll see if it was worth it!
And it appears that it was. 400 passangers a day and climbing and it seems to have eliminated the traffic problems. Yay!!!!!
Feck. A whirpool appeared and envolved a Marina near tassagrad. Sigh. And yet again, residential is plummiting. I lower the tax rate and it stops. Good.
I've begun to terraform the mountain so I can create more room for people.
Residential demand is going up. Again. Bya alrge amount, so I put a few more zones and stuff. I get offered a medical research center! Yay!
I repeal the Shuttle Service because it's costing a ton of money (sorry),
Ah. Residential zone is going down. Again. Bah.
A fire breaks out but does no damage.
I finally give in and make a highway connection. It looks pretty nice actually. it didn't cost much either.
Commercial is going down, but industry is going up. So I build some more industry.

And it comes to an end. Overall not too much really happend. Power is going to become a concern soon, as is water.
Under NO circumstances are you to enact the "Water/Power Conservation". Its useless and drives business away.

Anyway...heres the turn!

[Space05us]

colon your turn....hurry up

[Colon™]

I am, I am!

BTW, I still think each mayor should do as he sees fit to advance the city.
