This concept works for any restaurant or store in which you're interested. Almost all decent sized places have web site which you can easily find via google. Most of those sites have a "Contact Us" page which will include an email address. Send them a note telling them how much you miss their service/products/food and point out what a great opportunity they'd have here in TV. Use the form letter at the top or compose your own, but contrary to popular opinion, spelling does count if you want to be taken seriously. (That's why we have Spell Check on most email systems. :yikes
It's also a good idea to bring up the golf cart issue. Nobody outside of this area believes we really use them like we do. I can understand the desire for something on Hwy 42. I'd like everything to be on 466A since it's closest to me. The important thing, though, is to get them thinking of TV. If they go golf cart accessible, it would make Crossman and the developer happy, but even if they went into the new Lady Lake developments, it's a win for us. 040 040 040
Send a letter. A month or so down the road, send another letter. Have your friends and neighbors do likewise. And be sure to tell these people how great their store/restaurant is and how much you really, really, really miss it. :bow:
