I imagine the curfew was very important, especially the first couple of months. But I think at this point and time, based on the interaction I've had with the local community, people are really wanting to get out and stay here in Bay St. Louis instead of driving to Waveland and Diamondhead and other counties to go out and have a good time. |
I'm extremely happy that the mayor and the council have open their ears up to the business owners in town who came out tonight and voiced their opinion and are willing to respond so quickly. |
I'm really looking forward to the future. I'm just hoping that we can come to some resolution, and allow the people to move on and start thinking of the hurricane as something that happened last year. |
Let people know it's time to have fun, and start living life again. That's the only way to bring it back. |
We have husbands and wives and regular people who come here looking to unwind, socialize and have a good time. But then, at midnight they're forced to go spend their money in other cities or other parts of the county. |
