Letter to the editor

The Top Ten Reasons to Oppose the DNR and Pavilion Partners Pavilion Reuse Project:

10) A noisy banquet hall will kill the evening tranquility and sunsets at the park;

9) It will add light pollution to the night sky;

8) Large “window walls” will kill birds;

7) It sets a terrible precedent for other State Parks in Indiana;

6) It will allow alcohol back into a park where it had been banned for 25 years;

5) It will not pay property taxes into local coffers and provides an unfair business advantage not available to other local businesses;

4) The project planning was intentionally hidden from public view;

3) The project revenues to the IDSP are insignificant and will go to the entire State Park system with no increases for 35 years;

2) It constitutes the taking of a public beach for a private commercial business;

And ... drum roll please;

1) The local community is overwhelmingly against this project.

Please go to DunesAction.org on how you can help defeat this terrible, terrible idea.
