posed the Inn’s grand plan would do well to consider that a compromise is prudent and in the best interest of the community. When the Town Council was working on the Comprehensive Plan and town ordinances, the people of the town were very vocal. They felt both were too restrictive and denied rights they thought were basic to property owners.
The Council responded, in effect, “Let’s zone tightly, and when you have a plan, come to us and we will be open.” They did just that when Skippy Giles asked for a change in zoning. I hope they will weigh everything in this case also, and allow the Inn warranted expansion.
This is not a no-win situation. The Inn has been like a pebble tossed into a pond — its benefits have rippled through our community, town and county alike, in the form of added revenues, jobs, and a clean tourist industry that provides •a hedge against undesirable development. Moderate expansion will further benefit us all. If denied, we .all lose.
