Really, what business does a blue collar town with an aging population, whacked out tax assessements, some of the highest property taxes in the county, yet with one of the lowest median home sales prices have, owning and operating and subsidizing a venture that caters to an elitist and male dominated activity? My bet is that less than 1% of the town's population uses this facility.Originally Posted by Pumpkinhead
Sure this kind of recreational asset is fine for Amherst (take a look at their wealth and tax base); WS is NOT in that league. WS has to focus on essentials and priorities, not trying to run with the drs and lawyers and business owners in its wealthier counterparts. GET REAL.
