When I refer to right people, I mean people who are willing to work hard and pay taxes, and not look to the government for subsistence. I would prefer that people looking to live off of government (and taxpayer) money to live in cities and towns willing to pay for them. Unfortunately, Laconia is one of those cities. There is no meaning in my reference to right people beyond this concept.
We are on the same page especially on your definition of the right people. Investing in the Colonial would not be a wise choice to spend money to revitalize, yes it’s a beautiful building but this project should be privatized and started after the area begins to turn around.
