Impact analysis
Mohawk lost $260,000 its first year; a full renovation is pegged at $14-15 million with $8 million in bond funds already available.
Golfers, First Tee kids, and the Tulsa Zoo (whose parking lot floods) all gain if Mohawk is fixed.
If nothing is done, the 47-year-old infrastructure fails and Mohawk may close entirely.
