There's concern over commissioners relationships with "preservationist" groups. I believe it's just perceived, but it's a fear that there are sidebar discussions going on.

ARISE can operate Big Tupper now, but they can't sustain it. "Big Tupper cannot operate without this project. Now's the time to show that you truly want to bring balance to the Park."
