Mount Baker RV Park: What is the cost of NOT operating it?
Let me play devil’s advocate for a bit here and look at what the City of Cranbrook may be losing in closing the Mt. Baker RV park.
Has consideration been given to the potential number of folks who have stayed at the Baker RV park, explored the area, and then decided Cranbrook would be a great place to call home? Or discovered this is a great area to vacation in, and made plans to return? What about the downtown retail?
We stayed much of last summer in the Mt. Baker RV park and saw a large number of visitors at the park walking back from downtown laden with bags. What is the lost retail revenue? And what about reputation?
