what would you do?

What would you want to see them invest in?  What would you want them to leave as-is?

The money spent by Cal Trans to repair the highways after the flash floods could be saved by engineering large storm culverts to channel the flood plains underneath the pavement/highways. This could improve safety for visitors and staff who drive during the floods. 

I have not attempted to count up how many culverts would need to be installed but it's probably at least twenty. They could leave the minor flood plains alone because they rarely erode the pavement. I don't have the skill to complete a cost analysis on such projects. I assume that environmental concerns may nix my proposal. 

I'd like to see more Indigenous presence around the park. This is a sensitive topic for the Timbisha Shoshone as well as NPS staff and many locals in the area. For example I wish that the Visitors Center had a full time staff position filled by tribal members to answer questions and produce informative programs. If I were wealthy I'd establish something similar to an endowed department chair at universities.
