Doesn't take them long to realize that lower prices equals more sales
Welcome. But hard to do when the reduction comes off the profit end.
Their council rates, tradesmen and other overheads would not be reducing.
The way ahead would be plain vanilla parks where visitors ie customers assist in keeping the overheads down. A different model to the full service parks that could cater for the families and so on.
Similar to rental housing, that 20% rump of visitors who are hard on park facilities and are grubs, could be responsible for 80% of the overheads. One washer damaged by a large rug takes a lot of good customers to pay off as it were. I don't know what the solution to that is, but I personally would not object to some reporting system for park managers to give the swerve to those who make it more expensive for us and lesss profitable for them.
Equally I do not know how to overcome the growing expense from litigation, regulation and decisions by rental tenancies authorites (via the appeal mechanisms). -Where a tenant can claim compensation for all manner of things, the risk of which we once managed individually. Lawyers are increasing in number and along with tribunals, making work for themselves.
