Seaplane Base and runway 19 Mile Bay Proposed

His entire approach and argument has been nothing but throwing stuff against the wall to see what sticks. Unfortunately, it’s ricocheted back pretty spectacularly.

Lets see:
Existing business volume, less the dock owners she has alienated, less 19 mile bay neighbors that will never enter her store because of sea plane issue, plus the 5 or so seaplanes that may land to by an ice cream each year, should result in much less revenue per year. Am i missing something here?

I hope she survives because I do like her chicken!

She has a lot of money and obviously can afford to keep injecting capitol into a business that does not make any money. When she runs out of money and closes her doors in a year or so we can only hope Skelly's buys it at fire sale pricing and opens up there. Now that would be Epic!!!

Now there are accusations that the store is funding me. The conversation on Facebook is much more civil. Feel free to join us.

It's funny what people will say when they hide behind a screen name.

Way to turn my words! You are quite the slickster Epic. We know she’s not funding you.
But it is even funnier what some people feel they are entitled to just because she sunk all her money into a business that can never make a ROI.

Nobody has ever said that. She is trying to use you however... and you, going for the ride thinking you might make a few bucks...

No matter who or whom says what; This is not a Non Profit proposal. Neither is it a Charity proposal.

This is purely a "FOR PROFIT" plan, plain and simple.

Now the question is who benefits by this? The Store Owner (will they be selling plane ride tickets)? The Airplane Operator? Well, you can be sure he won't be flying the plane at no charge.....

Should the public have a say in who gets what? Some say yes; others will say it's none of our business. It will be interesting to watch this debate play out.
