(Andrew, can you recall better, did anyone said they thought > the > HOTEL would be a great benefit to the community?)
I'd have to look at a transcript (or have some video!) to be sure, but I do think the two committee-people who voted to approve felt that it was the restoration of the mansion that would be the benefit to the community. They all kept returning to that point, that restoring the building would be great. I think the differences among them were whether so large a building was an appropriate trade-off to get the historically listed property restored. I think the question of whether it's a hotel or a ten-story bowling alley falls mostly outside the reach of this particular committee. I believe one or two of them may have said as much.
