Public Comments Bullock, Smith & Partners, Inc. Notes from Interviews and Public Meetings: Lakefront is a valuable asset to the community of Kingston. Economic concerns include increasing tax revenue, buying power and retail opportunities. Public investment is a concern; would like to attract new money. Traffic and parking are significant concerns in the lakefront area. Important to emphasize historic elements within the city. Tourism and local recreation could be increased with restaurants and riverboat possibilities. Kingston would be an ideal place for a small marina to purchase gas. Ultimately, would like to improve upon the quality of life in Kingston.
