It's not like they are trying to take us over - they just want to come here on their golf cart and spend some money. If you think Stonecrest offering up TV along with what they have to offer is a problem, maybe you should have taken advantage of it. I don't believe they are coming in droves and would really even be a blip on the radar screen as far as additional traffic, but maybe the few bucks they want to spend would keep one of our merchants out the red!
As I have stated before, I just don't get the animosity toward these folks. I was once an "outsider" that spent thousands of dollars annualy at the eateries and golf courses. Sure I drove on your roads and carts paths. But I also helped these places stay open during the slow months. But as a current owner in TV, I say.....Let'em in.
