On April 3, Tina Kitchens, parks director, wrote Doug Mitchell, park police supervisor, to notify him about ice cream selling in Veterans Park.
She noted that ice cream selling was prohibited during ball games since, "This is direct competition for the concessions vendor as well as it affects the city's revenue as we get a percentage of the concession sales."
She later wrote, "It doesn't create much of a problem when ball games or special events aren't going on, however, to be consistent, we must enforce the policy."
"We wouldn't allow a T-shirt vendor or an artist to sell their product in the park, either, unless it is a specified special event," Kitchens wrote.
Seems to me you guys are mad at the wrong person. Just a thought.
The City of Florence's Leaders are ALL involved with decision making, just depends on which department is being reported as to the supervisor's name used..
The thing that Florence Residents need to really be concerned about is the ultimate GREED in "City Hall"... Trail of Tears, Ice Cream for kids hurts their revenue, and other things over the last year...
Someone, somewhere needs to stand up and say NO to the GREED.... just my humble opinion.
