 It never ceases to amaze me how some seemingly intelligent people will get a notion in their heads, and then in direct opposition to everything logical, as well as to public outcry, will stand and defend that idea in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Case in point, the “new town hall” project, or as I prefer to call it, “the Nolensville Taj Mahal.”
Over two years ago developer Bill Tisano, proposed to remodel his shopping center. Once town government got involved, the project grew from a simple facelift to a complete multi-million dollar overhaul and rebirth as "Town Center" and home of a new Town Hall. Naturally Tisano would pay substantially higher fees and development costs with the more expansive, more expensive plan.

 Tennessean reporter Suzanne Normand Blackwood had a story in today's Brentwood Journal about the future of Nolensville's town center project. According to Blackwood's article:
"Tisano recently told the town's board of mayor and aldermen ... that he has not been able to secure financing for the remainder of the project, which includes redeveloping the town center shopping center, including demolition of an old Piggly Wiggly store; building a new town hall, renovating the Sonic; and building a new Daily's Shell station."
