TR_TEMPLATE.append('    <td>{}</td>'.format(cols[0]))
TR_TEMPLATE = '\n'.join(TR_TEMPLATE)       #<--converts TR_TEMPLATE to a string

In the second line, you convert TR_TEMPLATE from a list to a string. On susequent iterations through the loop, you're trying to use .append on a string. you probably want to move the second line out of the loop and join at the end.

Note that you have that same mistake at a few points in your code...
