Letter To The Editor: Response To Visal And Little

By RICK NEBEL
Los Alamos

This is a response to Mr. Visal and Mr. Little on a new Wendy’s. I, for one, am happy to see that someone is thinking about opening a Wendy’s in Los Alamos. This represents a $2,000,000 to $3,500,000 investment in our community. I think it is great that someone is willing to make that kind of investment.

If you would prefer to have a KFC or Taco Bell, there is an easy way to fix that problem. Go purchase a franchise and open one yourself. Both KFC and Taco Bell have been tried up here before, and both of them failed. You might want to find out why that happened before you invest. Read More

Letter To The Editor: Response To ‘No To Wendys’

By DENNIS LITTLE
Los Alamos
 
Mr. Visel, Los Alamos County Council and Los Alamos P&Z,
 
I’m an extremely regular fast food eater (almost every work day), and completely agree with Mr. Visel — we absolutely do not need another hamburger place.
 
It would be easier to count places that DON’T serve hamburgers than it would be to count the ones that do.
 
PLEASE get us some variety of fast food. In addition to those mentioned by Mr. Visel, I’d also like to propose a Popeye’s Chicken, Wienerschnitzel, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Arby’s,

Letter To The Editor: No To Wendys

By ROBERT VISEL
Los Alamos
 
This town (Los Alamos) doesn’t need is another burger joint! So, before the County gives its OK for a Wendy’s let’s see if we can get something better like a Kentucky Fried Chicken (or Church’s), or a Taco Bell to take over the old McDonalds building.
 
Los Alamos is seriously lacking in its variety of choices for fast food places and another Burger Joint is certainly NOT the answer!

Preparing for a Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast like the one scheduled Saturday, May 18, in White Rock, is a big job. For one thing, it involves a giant grocery list.

In a telephone interview Tuesday, Pancake Breakfast Chairman John Arrowsmith said that on Monday, May 13, he purchased the food. The major items, bought from a food service, were as follows:

  • 75 pounds of pancake
