Easy; Bristol should not have bought the worthless dock, nor should they have continued the lease past Dec. 1st, the date Medley said he was done with it. To screw over another competitor like this is disgusting to say the least. I can see the law suit already if A&R wins it when they do not have the lease and Medley does. Does the lease state that if a new company takes over that medley's lease becomes null and void? This was ill thought out by the Council in my opinion. Way to create a business fiasco. Also what the heck is this. "The new company will have to prove that is “fit, willing and able to provide ferry service” and that there is a need for the ferry service." A NEED? Is it not obvious, who makes these rules?
