I've not been in Charlotte long enough to know how the construction of the arena was funded... where did that money come from? Was there a tax increase?

Lately, there's been a tax increase in Charlotte whenever there's not an election. There are city tax increases, and then there are county tax increases.
I don't find this surprising at all. Why would you over-estimate a bid and finish the project cheaper when your competition can under-estimate a bid and secure it and start construction and whoops, we're over budget already!
My Pookie does not know this but I will give them a night on the town when it does open
They will be so excited when they think we are just walking to see the outside..hehe
Sunny, you are so the romantic! That is adorable! LOL!!!
