ReplyDo a web search on Dollar General and see the effects that their openings have on surrounding neighborhoods. Also see how they come in NOT selling alcohol and tobacco products and about 6 months after they are open and the (negative) hoop-la about their opening has somewhat subsided; they (Dollar General) apply for and receive licenses to sell those products. It just gets better and better.......

ReplyThis owner needs a publicist - the only persons I have even seen who are more desperate for attention than she is are the Kardashian Krew - at least they have managed turned their need for attention into millions. This desperate soul only seems to manage to make headlines only in the Dunedin Patch. - My bet is that this newest cry for attention and publicity is a feeble attempt to recoup some of the business this owner probably lost pre-election. Statistically this busines had to have lost a measurable percentage of their customers who did not support the political views that were posted so out there and in your face and as such found another laundromat. At least a good publicist would tell this business owner to stop using a viable profitable (?) business this way, lest it is ruined it in the long run....

Lori - What is needed on the Southside? Has anyone ever sat down and written out a true proposal of exactly what the problems are and what the residents need, point by point to solve the, and asked for a sit down with the City Officials? Clearly there are problems. However having run business for the better part of 25 years sometimes we(the ones experiencing the actual problems) think the people who can make changes know exactly what needs to be done. BUT many times they (those who can make change happen) do not know. When they (the change makers) do not know and all they hear is we (the ones experiencein the problems) need help, nothing is being done,etc. it starts to be ignored - because they do not have specific problems/solutions for those problems - SPECIFICS - and perhaps if there is no concrete list of problems and solutions in front of the City Officials - they do not know specifics. I do not know the solution as I personally do not know the exact problems nor do I know of the solutions that people who live there(Southside) believe will work to elimate the problems - SPECIFICALLy. Besides, even if I knew, I am not a City Official. I am just offering a suggestion to perhaps get these problems addressed more efficiently and ultimately solved. I truly believe this is Dunedin Problem - not north or south. Good Luck and keep up the good fight!!

By the time they are all completed we will have THREE Dollar General Stores with a Dunedin address - a bit of overkill, don't you think?
