Aspen City Council should do what next with the lease at the Wheeler for Valley Fine Arts? 

• Valley Fine Arts has been there 17 years, owned by a local who grew up in Aspen. Re-up the lease so she can stay in business in these times.
• Grab-and-go fast food sounds good. Do that. We don’t have enough places to affordably eat in this town. 
• The council shouldn’t dictate what goes in the space, only who will pay the most rent. It’s simply business.
• That this is even a discussion shows the whole problem with Aspen today.
