I am not sure if the study you reference in your recent article was the Pinnacle Report; however, if it was not...it is yet another study ignored.
Once "local leaders" saw the draft of that study, which suggested a much, much smaller scale project would make the most sense for downtown, they stopped paying and refused to take possession of the final report. Without taking possession of the final report, they took the position that the study never existed.
Editor's note: The study pre-dated the Pinnacle Report and did not propose consideration of a convention center or a hotel for downtown revitalization.
