"A great observation"

As I have said over and over to those who have ask why don’t we just give the Convention Center "a shot", my answer is always the same...the CC will take the City three steps back, not two steps forward. The CC's never ending need for resources and subsidy will all but kill other revitalization efforts.

You make a great observation when you say that for the first time funds committed to the CC are hurting a key public resource in Lancaster City. [The library renovation and expansion] is just the first of a long line of worthy projects and initiatives that will not be taken on because we have mortgaged our future on a project with none.
