Indiana residents are receiving letters by certified mail from the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission (ATC).

Those getting the letters remonstrated at the September 10 hearing against an alcohol permit requested by Pavilion Partners for use at the beach pavilion in Dunes State Park.

By responding to this letter, those against the permit may be able to be an “intervening remonstrator,” the citizens group Dunes Action said in a press release Thursday.

This would give them special standing to appeal this matter if it continues to go further in the ATC process.

Norm Hellmers, a spokesperson for Dunes Action, said that a form that needs to be returned and instructions on how to complete it are available at several local businesses in Chesterton: Red Cup CafŽ, Duneland Resale, and L.O.A.F.

“We thank these businesses for being civic-minded and we thank everyone who wants to help maintain our family-friendly State Park and preserve our treasured beachfront pavilion,” Hellmers said.

Citizens who receive a letter from the ATC have 15 days to respond after receiving it. Hellmers added: “Since Pavilion Partners has chosen to appeal the ATC’s 4-0 decision against their being granted an alcohol permit, these letters are now critical.”

Dunes Action is a volunteer, non-partisan citizen coalition that is opposed to the plan by the IDNR to allow a private development company to build and operate a conference/banquet center on the lakefront at the Indiana Dunes State Park.
