BOX 1588 · LEWlSVlLLE, TX 75067 PHONE / FAX: (972) 625-5544 July 22, 2002 Ms. Pam Nelson, Director Parks and Recreation Department L~- City of The Colony ~ 5151 North Colony Boulevar~- The Colony, Texas 75056 Dear Ms. Nelson: Having our Snowie Shaved Ice concession at the Parks and Recrea- tion Department building would have been a really fun enterprise for both of us. With great regret, we must respectfully discontinue our interest in doing so with you this year. Your verbal enthusiasm for having us there has been terrific and we thank the City Council for their approval of it. Our decision not to continue with this endeavor was based in large part on the following circumstances; First, the very nature of a summer business indicates that arrangements for setting it up should be done in a reasonable and timely manner, which has not happened so far, and Second, there seems to be a bias toward the concessionaire currently operating (JT's) at Hidden Cove Park, which has had a direct effect on us. At the behest of your department, we were to be at Stewart Creek Park on July 4, or July 4-7, on a one-time-only basis. This was cancelled by your people on July 1, citing the reasons for this were because JT's would have a concession there, and that afterall, they (JT's) had right of first refusal over similar concessions to operate there. We visited Stewart Creek Park July 4-7 and noted that an exception was made for the barbecue caterer on July 4 and JT's did not have a concession there at all on those dates.
