A large number of people with work-from-home jobs spend their days at Bread Company or Starbuck's. It may be that they do not have suitable Internet access at home or they simply like the social aspect of these places, as well as the accessability and constant supply of coffee and other food and beverage items. Imagine now if these establishments added a section of telecommuter stations that provided some basic working privacy and some separation from patrons that are not there to work. The establishment could rent the space on an ad-hoc or first-come-first-served basis for $10 per day, including house coffee. This would make it fair for the establishment for people to spend their day occupying space. It would give other telecommuters another option from working from home even if just one day per week to help break up their week or to have some social interaction. It should also generate some incremental business for the establishment that it might not otherwise enjoy.

I wonder if changing the logo of the city is a wise move? The logo of Wildwood is unique and represents the spirit of the city. I've lived here for 12 years and I love it. Did we poll the voters about this? And, BTW, changing the logo is not going to attract any new business - expectation of profit is. I wonder if spending tens of thousands of dollars just to get a marketing company to suggest that we change a logo is really worth the expense? Rather than spending tax dollars on such frivolity, I would like to see Wildwood spend the money on someone charged with capturing the actual business. In my company, we have a Sales person doing that daily. We don;t waste time updating our business cards - we go to the customers.

How about a winery type place that would draw folks who do not have time to drive all the way to wineries. Would have to be upscale - not a whole in the wall type of place. Fireplaces in fall, winter. Outside seating for spring, summer. Music. Ask yourself why TableThree stays in business and Applebees did not. There has to be something special or worthwhile to drive out to Wildwood
