Comments on: Creek Indian Enterprises Purchases Fairfield Inn In Atmore http://www.northescambia.com/2019/02/creek-indian-enterprises-purchases-fairfield-inn-in-atmore Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Fri, 03 Apr 2026 18:45:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Kenneth Corey Poarch Creek Tribal Member http://www.northescambia.com/2019/02/creek-indian-enterprises-purchases-fairfield-inn-in-atmore/comment-page-1#comment-382458 Kenneth Corey Poarch Creek Tribal Member Fri, 08 Feb 2019 19:13:06 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=352448#comment-382458 Speaking solely as a Tribal Member... (And I know I speak on behalf of many others but not all). I am completely unsure what CIEDA has in mind when many similar purchases are made. We The People are not involved or included in the decision making process or demographics, we usually get notified of PCI /CIEDA purchases when the general public does. A commentor earlier used the word MONOPOLY, this seems like a very appropriate word to use, except most Monoplolies require a lot of money (working capital), not just a great line of credit or some wealthy investors. I am grateful for our success and I'm proud we offer many jobs to the community and state, but I often ask "What are we doing? "We seem to have no set goal, only buy, buy, buy. I challenge any CIEDA member to share the full vision of "ITS"actions with PCITM OR The General Public, their work is under the darkness to all. Just another FYI unrelated to our latest motel acquisition, OWA our Theme Park loses more money than probably any business of its size in The State of Alabama, but we have some pretty awards hanging on the wall for its State Contribution. The purchase of this motel in Atmore City Limits is equivalent to a one room shack compared to some of our Resort Properties We've acquired (public record or not) Just one TM's thoughts.

It was a big decision to sell from what everybody was told. Those parking lots use to always stay full. Not so much now. Maybe they should have kept the Manager that ran both of them to help continue running them. The previous owners did not bail out quickly. It was a big decision to sell from what everybody was told.

I’d imagine, this purchase will allow for the CIEDA to offer off site hotel/casino packages for events.
