During a recent visit to Oly City Hall I was reminded of an odd thing about the facilities during the early years (1960s to maybe early 1970s). In the center ring, where there is now a circular lawn surrounding the chambers, there used to be a moat. I'm serious. And in the moat there were really big fish, like trout. Maybe another long-time area resident out there in OlyBlog land can back me up on this. Anyway, I propose the moat be reinstated and stocked with nutria. It will provide a lure for the caimans, where they can be easily captured and contained. There is no question the small amount of taxpayer dollars required to make this conversion would be well worth the investment.
