Editor:

Thank you for your article explaining why the Snack Shack at Willard Beach has not been open. Sylvia Gordon has always done a great job running it and was treated very poorly by the city. It is another example of heavy handed treatment of ordinary citizens by the government. I smell a rat, and I am very glad that Ms. Gordon is retaining a lawyer to get to the bottom of this situation. Meanwhile, I will not be patronizing the concession stand and I urge others to do the same. Good luck to Ms. Gordon and I look forward to reading more about this story as it unfolds.
