The block West of the Market is more of a hazard than where the market is, hope the market stays where it is.

There is no better place in Westcliffe to hold the farmer's market. To lose this market would be a real shame.

The market is in a great spot currently that allows the vendors to earn a living, bring tourists and locals into town, and encourage patronage of other local businesses. Please don't move the location!

This is a great spot for the farmers market, i was very impressed with the city, of Westcliffe and where the farmers market is located. As a vendor selling produce at the market when my wife and i get ready to leave we stop at the local shops for lunch or even an ice cream. I am not sure why you would want to move the farmers market from this location, i have heard from many people how great your market is and i have truly enjoyed the people and the location. The market provides great access to all and for the vendors for costumers a great area to be in the shade as well. Please keep the market where it is....

The farmer’s market is like an old friend - an important gathering place for locals and a chance to reconnect each year with the vendors. There is not another location with the exposure, public facilities, and accessibility anywhere on Main Street. Visitir’s Migrate toward farmer’s markets - get a first-hand introduction to our wonderful community. Moving it anywhere else, even down to the Bluff, for example, would be its death knoll.

I love coming to the market and use the trip to town to visit other shops and visit with people in the park! Why would the town effectively eliminate something so positive in the community?!?!

I love it where it is. People need to see the market for it to be successful. Let’s encourage businesses and festivals to come here!!!

surely a better route out for the fire trucks can be found, making the park and all who use it not be any safety problem.....

The market adds charm to the town during its busiest season. It should not be moved unless the town provides a spot that has public restrooms, the same visibility, and features like the ones in Jess Park. Anything else would be a downgrade and anti-micro-business.

This is truly the best location as it is on main street, and where those traveling through are bound to see it. Parking has not been a problem, look at Main street WEST of the intersection...trucks and Van's often are far out into the lane making people have to cross over into the other lane to get around. There is more traffic, and safety issues there than anywhere near the park.

If the market is moved, it will effectively kill the market because the vendors that actually stay, will not make any money, which eats into the revenue that the town gets from taxes.

Keep it where it’s at. If you move it no ones going to come to it.
