Only one other HGI property globally had both its general manager and its director of sales receive these awards in 2011.
Big Lots
Having another low end store such as Big Lots is not something to brag about.Another minimum wage employer which further detracks higher end stores from coming to Palm Coast.Good for the short run,some people will get jobs, but over all not promising for future developement.
Where is Costco
I’d much rather have Costco than Big Lots. I wish they would come to Palm Coast
Matanzas Woods Golf Course
Toby, I know some homeowners who back to the Matanzas Golf Course that were not invited to the meeting. Is there a way to get hold of any minutes or information on what was discussed?
Reply to DB
Unfortunately, we don’t have the demographics Costco is looking for. Based on what I’ve heard of their threshold, Ormond Beach or Daytona Beach would be a more likely location.
