		County Commissioner Peter Lawson Jones says while organizers anticipate as much as $20 million a year for the next ten years, he recognizes that the fund has limitations.
		Jones says that's why there has been some discussion for setting up a trust fund - something for the county and arts organizations to draw on when and if tax revenue starts to slow.
		Peter Lawson Jones: Its clear that the need is so great and so urgent for operating funds, that I'm kind of doubtful that at least this year and perhaps next year, I don't expect to see a decision made to set up a trust fund.

		Peter Lawson Jones, who two weeks ago became a Cuyahoga County Commissioner, yesterday spoke to Elizabeth Stiles' political science class, "Politics of the 50 States," on his previous five years in the state legislature.

	Plunderbund » Lee Fisher is Strickland’s Choice
		Compared to the base of Peter Lawson Jones, a sitting county commisioner in the biggest county in the primary, who could bring close to 80% of the 11th Congressional district electorate with him, Lee Fisher is a sad joke.
		Perhaps Peter doesn’t want to run on this ticket, or any ticket, but if he was interested, to pick Lee over Peter is an astoundingly poor decision.
		Peter Lawson Jones has already endorsed Strickland, so I seriously doubt he’s going to pull his endorsement and run on the Fingerhut ticket.
