    TCAPS Tries Again

    And this time its hard to say what might happen.

    In another post it was mentioned among the comments to watch for encore performances.  Indeed that IS how it goes when some of your friendly neighborhood's largest governmental units don't succeed.  They try, and try again.

    "A proposal to raise more money for schools in Traverse City is sailing smoothly into the November election. A much larger proposal was a disaster for the school district last year. .."
    And in Grand Traverse County, the encore performance would be nothing without an auditorium request, again.

    Or rather a "performing arts center;" the one-time descriptive for a previous $26.5 million (part of $100 million) auditorium effort. Of course the proposed competition for Interlochen's stage market at 1200 seats and real cannons to remind folks of Shakespeare's globe (before said cannons burned it to the ground) was turned down by voters who are making decisions of paying the utilities or mortgage, and hardly wish to cough up more for what (given their circumstances) they might equate to frivolity.

    Certainly, $12.9 Million is hardly too much to ask for the warm fuzzies of having a state of the art (albeit smaller) palace to entertain with the 18th straight season of Les Mis. Its truly a minor act.

    Break a leg I say.
