Many proposed projects never materialize

I can think of several community projects that have been shelved or canceled due to lack of funds or local interest. Consider the following
A. The youth center to be built next to the Estill County High School Track near the Winchester Road. The sign has rotted down
B. Park near Lock 12 off Old Pike in Ravenna KY. The lock houses were never restored. Nada. Nothing.
C.Improving Winchester Road (KY89) from Rice Street to Joseph Proctor bypass. This road needs turning lanes in front of Priceless and Family Dollar. Again locals complained about the road being built behind their businesses would hurt their sales. It is all "what is in it for me" instead of "what is better for the community".
