Sometimes you win big, and sometimes you looooooooose big!

And sometimes you get rained out. ...

..... just like baseball!

Thursday, May 23, 2019 (same day as today's LaDaSun report): https://www.cdfifund.gov/programs-tr...ment-step.aspx

So, in 2009 the feds said yes to a one million dollar grant for two new clean diesel engines for the Mount Washington through the Cash for Clunkers, EPA program.

And, in 2019 the feds said no to 4.8-million dollar federal tax credits for the Colonial Theatre-Main St renovation through the Treasury Dept. That's like 4.8 mil out of 3.5- billion or 35,000-mil, what they have to work with ..... or 5 out of 35,000 ..... with 34,995 more to offer ... but, it didn't happen.

What a difference ten years can make.

And, Belknap County is the most Republican county, counting state reps and state senators, of all the ten NH counties ..... so how come this got the big red light ...... no?

As you probably know, the rebirth of the Colonial Theatre was planned to help renew and regrow the commercial downtown area for Laconia.
