Good Morning to you all!

I can't attend the meeting this morning but i do want to say that I agree with Kate Rosenbarger about the ConCen.  A lot of us do NOT want an expansion.  I would be delighted if the tax collected so far were better spent.  

Whatever tax is levied or increased by elected leaders, we citizens have to pay it.  That does not mean we approve of the intended purpose.  

With best wishes,

Betty Rose (Nagle)

If I may offer an opposing view, those of us who work in conference-adjacent industries such as entertainment would very much like to see an expanded convention center. Bigger conferences coming to Bloomington means more work for us. Bigger conferences coming to Bloomington means more money generated for local businesses.

Thanks,

Ron

Hi  Ron!

Thanks again for sharing your opinion.  Do you typically play a lot of gigs at the ConCen?

I like the idea of a Civic Center, and most of the events I've attended at the ConCen have been by and for locals, e g., MCUM Spring Luncheon and the Humane Association Tails on the Town. This year Tails is at the Woolery Mill,  maybe by choice. That seems increasingly to be a venue for local events.

Cheers!

Betty Rose

Hi Betty Rose! Thanks for writing back, and for listening to my opinion.

Yes, I’ve played at the Convention Center many times for many different events, including conferences. And as you have observed, I’ve also been playing an increasing amount at Woolery Mill.

 The convention center and Woolery Mill have similar setups, in terms of large rooms that can be partitioned off, smaller breakout rooms on separate levels, etc. I think the one place where Woolery Mill has the CC beat is in the availability of outside space for events.  I don’t know if plans for a CC expansion include making an outside space, but I hope they do as it is very popular option for people. 

Thanks again!

Cheers!

Ron
