justjim - don't look for impact fees in sumter county to build your performing arts center - talk to some professionals in the booking business - they will tell you that there are a sufficient number of venues in the area and any more would be over saturation...cannot/will not book an entertainer in one area that will reduce ticket sales in a neighboring area...the further apart the venues are - the better the odds that folks will travel to see a good entertainer, thus the higher ticket sales and gate profit.

re building more roads...which ones do you think need improvement and which cause a strain on our lifestyle? surely you don't want to see 466, 466a, buena vista, morse widend in order to accomodate even more cars - do you?
