The Museum is a worthwhile project, but the inflated costs now proposed for the Arts Center are off the chart.

The referendum question should be a two part question:

Do you support the Museum - Yes or No
Do you support the Art Center
Yes or No

The Museum would pass easily and the Arts Center would not.
