Zoning and road issue again. Looking more serious this time.

[Wes]

There's no way a city is going to shut down a park that nets them millions of dollars because a dude is mad about his road.

[mcjaco]

Reminds me of the idiots that move next to an airport, and complain about the noise.....

[redfoot12]

Or the idiots that move to Kingsmill so BGW can never get their woodie...

[Hercules]

Just like Wes said, the town benefits from this economically. I'm sure the guy can be made happy somehow. This definately isn't going to hurt the park a lot. It is just a pain in the butt for them.

[Primogen18]

Just cant understand how that guy can be so bitter and stubborn, must have no life... the parks been there how long and hes JUST starting to complain about it?

[larrygator]

the law is the law but the foolishness to single out the amusement park, the race track must bring in 2-3 times as many cars on a busy day.

 

At Rumblefest there might have been 1,000 cars the the amusement but their looked to be at least 5,000 over at the racetrack.

 

Don't those going to the racetrack have to head down the same crappy "country road"? Maybe I'm wrong, does anybody do for sure.

Instead of going straight into the park, you make a left. From there you drive by the Rumbler and go down a hill. I'm sure the Magistrate that was out riding the Rumbler on media day is backing up the Jones on this. There are way too many people in Bowling Green on BB's side to let the place close.

We have ways to make folks "happy" down here : pumps shotgun

[Shavethewhales]

Oh wow, this reminds me of the people who live out in front of Bell's and kept them from getting their new woodie for so long. Except for the fact that this is one person...

 

Crazy, just crazy, people can be so... dumb.

[exmouse]

Didn't this guy use to be Beech Bends legal advisor. If so would he not have been responsible for ensuring the building of the park was all legal and above board. If it now turns out that wasn't the case could the park sue him for negligence? Likewise isn't the guy using insider information to turn against the park.?

[verticalzero]

The guy is so mad cos he can't ride the B/B Rumbler

 

He could of got treated badly while working for the park and this is his way of getting back at it.

Those people around Bells where such twits. My soon to be neice has a house right by Bells ( I'll be crashing with my new favorite nephew and neice in law when the new coaster opens )and she has no problem with Bells new ride.

Most of those people came long after Bells, and Zingo opened.

[mr_teisco_delrey]

I just saw this.

It looks like the case has been resolved.

[Gnome]

apparantly so.

[MisterP]

Maybe if they close, they'll move KR to another park with a ride exit that is shorter in length than the Great Wall of Wichita........er, China
