Comments in Support of HB 52

I don't feel leasing state property is the way to go. What will be next? Hampton Beach! or The Flume!The little people need a place to ski,too. $65 a day at BW is a little much for the average person living in the North Country. People who lease offer you everything and deliver little in the long run. Let's get the real facts and numbers about Sunapee and what it has done for the state. Also, do we really want more and more developement. I don't. - Peter A., Franconia

No! No! No! No! We do not want to be part of Disney-North! - Lucy G.

The effect on the character of Franconia and the surrounding communities could be very negative. Do we want an overdeveloped, overpriced, and overcrowded ski area and community like some others nearby? - George M., Franconia

Would Sunapee (sic) done all that work if they knew they wouldn't have been able to build their development?
Now that Bretton Woods is corporate how is their relationship with local lodging properties and chambers? Will I ever see this posted..... - Rob A., Cannon Mt.

Sounds good and you'll make a lot of $ if you're a developer!
No one makes money on ski areas, they make money on building condos and selling land...note the new (high priced) developments at Loon and Bretton Woods! Is that what you want to happen in Franconia???
This is a PARK not a RESORT! It is a Park that belongs to the people of NH. - Ronnie S., Easton

As a resident of Mittersill Village, I am deeply concerned about this bill. Leasing goes hand in hand with development. I would not like to see Mittersill chalets sold in order to put up condos and oh yes...why not have a casino!! There's got to be more to this than meets the eye. Who among the sponsors owns land and would stand to make a small fortune if this goes through???
I also do not believe the financial figures. Let's come clean! The Parks should be separate from DRED. How much is being siphoned off by DRED??? - Barbara R.

Cannon (sic) give the NH residents a chance to ski that other wise would not. Two for Tuesday and Thursday, Wednesday NH resident day. One of the best venues for local High school races, club races in New England. Sunapee does noting (sic) for NH residents.
Sunapee - $929 for a season pass, $1,710 for a kids program, $58 dollars a day for a little hill. Yes you can ski OKEMO / STRATTON, great idea, let’s send people to Vermont!! I’d rather go to Cannon.
Yes there are times that the way Cannon is operated frustrates me but it’s most likely not the Mountain management making the questionable calls. - Joe B., Hooksett
