The Statue of Maintenance

The Statue of Maintenance

Statue that not just demonstrates the wealth of your island but also serves as a celebration of your industrial success. It has such a positive effect on your population that it reduces your island's maintenance requirements by 5%. In order to get the bonus, the statue needs to be provided with 'Fuel gas' on a continuous basis. However, if you don't maintain your statue you will get a negative effect. Because nothing demotivates your workers from performing maintenance more than seeing a broken statue of maintenance. You can build this multiple times should your wealth allow it, but you get the bonus only once.

Text on the plaque:

Life can be rough,
if you don't maintain your stuff.
And when things fail, just look -
missing entry in the service book!
