Apparently the trial balloon still has air in it...

...although the 'regional' idea isn't present, the 1% sales tax plan gains ground:
"The board's Finance Committee voted 4-3 Thursday in favor of a November referendum on the plan. The full County Board is scheduled to vote next Thursday on whether to put the question to voters."
I wonder if there's a connection with this story:
General Growth Properties Inc., the company that owns Mayfair Mall, announced plans Thursday to develop a similar-sized center on 110 acres at the northwest corner of I-94 and state Highway 67. The center would include national department stores, upscale shops, a multiscreen theater and restaurants in about 1 million square feet.
