Arbiters,
On a recent trip to supply our defensive platform, La Fortaleza, I noticed there is some excess space available on the station which is not being used. I understand the base's purpose is, and will always remain, the defense of our home from invaders. However, I believe I could open and run a succesful business venture on the station without hindering it's mission. My proposal is to open a pub aboard the station for Congressmen, and those friendly to us, to have a safe place to relax and conduct business.
I'd like to convert this space:
In the haste to construct defenses the station's interior was left in spartan condition. It is my intent to invest my own funds into renovating the open areas into a lobby, state of the art internal security office, and a pub. I will have a private VIP Congress lounge and an office for administering my business.
The extra cargo bay used to facilitate the speedy construction of the base will be ideal for not only supplying my bar, it allows ample room for me to store and distribute various goods.
I plan to modify one of the docking bays to allow mooring larger vessels in order to facilitate speedy and efficient loading and unloading of transports. An advantage of having a steady flow of cargo moving in and out of La Fortaleza would be the ability for me to offer a good price on basic necessities. I'm sure the base will be easier to maintain as my customers inport such needed goods as food, oxygen, water, and Basic Alloys.
I thank you for your time and consideration in this. I eagerly await your response.
