A bond by any other name would ... cost as much
A few weeks back, we wrote about how Greensboro City Council members were putting careful thought into the order in which the 11 bond items should appear on the November ballot.
They're putting just as much thought into how the bonds should be named.
On Tuesday night, the council will consider making the following changes:
$9 million Aquatic Center Bonds = $9 million Swimming Center Bonds
$5.5 million War Memorial Stadium Bonds = $5.5 million War Memorial Baseball Stadium Bonds
$5.2 Municipal Building Bonds = $5.2 million Public Building Renovation Bonds
For those of you who think this word worry is much ado about nothing (please note our second Shakespeare reference), I have one word: natatorium.
