Well, finally, some one has shown a modicum of good reasoning. This was a most welcome decision.It is not that I would not like to see a new stadium, if it would help Gaffney grow I am all for it and, while the lending market (at this time) may be conducive to borrowing the money I still think it was a *bad* idea.
The high school has been and is in such a mess and there is no[glow=red,2,300]final[/glow] end in sight. I just believe that this mess should be finalized and over before another (possible) one is started. Maybe given the extra time to think it over there might be more opportunity to find and evaluate the company that will be doing the work and to ensure that the job will be done right the *first* time? No need in throwing more money down a rat hole than has already been thrown.
The market will flucuate on down the road and there will be another opportunity to secure monies for a stadium at a later date.
NOW! Lets get to work on rectifying the mess downtown and making it a place where one would love to go and shop and meet neighbors.
