The 24/7 access 365 days a year wasn't mentioned in the article you linked that you said you got 'all this' from. So would you please provide that source. I see them saying it needed to be open during the winter, and in previous reports I read in one of the other links in this thread that he had tried to close it all winter but has more recently had it open some days during the winter.
Also I fail to see how the decline of the areas use would have anything to do with its availability, this isn't a use it or lose it situation. Can you explain how reduced usage of the beach should effect its availability at all?
There are a lot of unsupported statements going on for both sides if I take the ones that they seem to agree on I get something of a narrative like this.
He bought the property.
He kept the beach open similar to the previous owners.
Tried to charge $X amount for parking.
People complained, and the court told him he could only charge $2.
He said well fuck you guys I'll just close the beach.
He won a case to close the beach.
He lost a 2nd case forcing him to open the beach.
He lost a 3rd beach forcing him to open the beach.
He started opening the beach sometimes. Is it more or less than the previous owners? Well this seems to be where the core disagreement is with no real support or evidence provided to the public for either side.
I think he comes off sounding like a dick, especially at the end of that article that quotes him repeatedly which you linked, where he tries to re-frame the issue as one of conservation. You apparently see him as an entitled land owner, we clearly disagree. However if you would like to continue this, which there is no need to as I believe we have reached an impasse I would ask that any numbers you use are ones I can verify. Thank you.
