See, businesses sell product and collect taxes for the products sold. They give this money to the State, County and little old Estes Park. If they run out of product, they have to get more of it. That’s the problem. Fed/EX, UPS, DHL and other commercial carriers bring the products to the retail stores. That’s the way it works in every community.
Now, here in Estes, the Town hates business, hates delivery trucks and loves busses. They are trying to get rid of delivery vehicles so the EMPTY busses can park, sit for awhile, and move on. It’s busses that they think will solve all of the problems. Busses paid for by our tax dollars; busses that go from neighborhood to neighborhood to spread pollution fairly to everyone. If one were to look behind the scenes, one would see that the real goal is to use the bus idea to try and con the federal government out of money. That will be the next ploy. Pickering, liar that he is, will enhance ridership numbers as he did last year. “Hey folks, we have thousands and thousands of riders every day.”
Repola says that delivery vehicles interfere with busses, a very bad thing, and that the problem exists because of poor planning. However, lest you think differently, WE DO NOT HAVE A PARKING PROBLEM! Whew, that was tough to get out. You locals surely know there is not a parking problem. Easy as pie to get into the post office isn’t it? Kind of like musical chairs, with dozens of drivers trying to zero in on the one spot that turns out to have a motorcycle in what you thought was an empty space.
Summer in Estes Park, isn't it fun?
