I think that if the reserve wants the land then let them have it. The question lies in what they plan to do with it. Are they going to take the initiative and do something about the decline of the property and fix it up and to make it profitable or are they going to let it decline further and waste the potential of the land.

Rehab the docks, put up a concession stand for summer times and special events, clean up the campsites and add amenities to encourage people to come and spend money there, have events and encourage others to have events there. It would be a beautiful place for weddings if there was a pavillion where the Fort used to be.

The reason of the decline of the point is the treaty. Why would the town spend money on a property that isn't going to be theres in few years?

I will be interested to see how this plays out.
