  Respondents' Comments to Question 175
1.NO!
2.174 & 175: either way, I'm in support, but these are not mutually exclusive. We could do BOTH.
3.Use existing millage better. New Village/Twp Bldg should have been a multi-purpose bldg and low profile. Why wasn't an outside entrance to bathrooms for tourists, etc. done?
4.If you like Charlevoix or Petoskey, move there!
5.How about grant money?
6.Some combination including "matching" of funds by willing individuals
