Last night the City Commission the City Commission stated its intent to approve the $2.95 million UEZ grant at next month's meeting. The move is meant to help the Levoy board secure money from its other sources. THe evoy Theatre Preservation Society board members presented piles of petitions with signatures of support. Also many stood up and gave their support

I loved the part where Lauren is at the podium, and they kept piling the petitions of support in front of Lew Thompson.

The pile kept getting higher and higher.

Every outside consultant has agreed that the Levoy (pronounced LEE_Voy)is the key to the continued success of the arts district.

Likewise, if the Levoy doesn't succeed, then everyone else on High Street might as well pack it in, because the street will revert to what it was ten years ago.
