Mersco 5-$1.00 Store Ba £55 Traffic jam as Lindsay plaza opens Despite free bus service from the downtown area, and special bus service from outlying areas, Lindsay's first shopping plaza opened August 16 creating what was described as a 'mammoth traffic jam." Crowds started lining up an hour before the scheduled 10:00 a.m. opening and soon every available space in the parking lot was filled. Squads of police were kept busy trying to keep traffic moving, but cars waiting to get into the jammed l6t were backed up for some distance in both directions. The pro- blem was heightened by the fact that extra lanes for turning cars on the access road have not yet been competed. Lindsay Mayor David Lo- gan snipped a ribbon to officially open the plaze which at present has two stores, Zeller's and A and P. There are plans for a total of 16 stores, with several to be open by the end of this month. The plaza is located on Kent Street at the western town limits. Both Zeller's and the A and P had been long established in the down- town commercial sector of Lindsay.

The enumeration involves the gathering of basic in- formation. for: municipal voters' lists. Eight percent of Ontario municipalities will hold elections on Monday, December 4. Mr. Grossman said that throughout Ontario's Hist- ory, property qualifications, with some exceptions, have established eligibility for local electors. "This year, for the first time, we have expanded the right to vote in municipal and school board elections to, the growing number of people who are neither property owners nor lung term tenants. "A Canadian citizen or British Subject who is 18 years of age or older and a resident of the municipality between September 5 and October 10 can vote in local elections," the minister ex- plained. Mr. Grossman .said this year's enumeration is also important as it embraces several other fundamental changes in legislation. "For example, an indi- * vidual will now have only one vote per municipality, re- gardless of how many prop- erties he or she may own or rent. 'However, if an individual is resident in one munici- pality and also a property owner in another mun- icipality he or she can vote, but only once, in each municipality, so can that person's spouse." Mr. Grossman continued: '"This means that a cottage owner, for example, can vote in the municipality where he is usually resident as well as the municipality in which his cottage is located. ' 'As cottage owners are not normally permanent resi- dents of the municipalities where they own cottages, enumeration notices will be mailed to them at their permanent residences. They should make any necessary corrections on the notice and mail it to the address indicated." The enumeration is being made by The Ministry Of Revenue's Assessment Division on behalf of the municipalities. Enumera- tions have traditionally been made in the spring, starting this year, they will be undertaken in the fall, closer to the December election date, to reduce errors and omissions caused by family moves in the summer, be- tween school years. The Enumeration is to collect such information as names, ages, property occu- pancy status, school support, school electoral status, cit- izenship and residency. This information is required to prepare Municipal Voters' Lists which will be delivered to municipal clerks by Oct- ober 10. : Following publication of the lists, people who have incorrectly been omitted from the lists can contact the municipal clerk to have their names added. The Enumerator's visit to a home or apartment will take only a few minutes of the resident's time. Resi- dents are urged to check the information recorded by enumerators to make any necessary corrections and to sign the notice as being correct. In addition, the enumerator will countersign the notice. Local M.P. invited to Caribbean Russell C." Honey, M.P.

Plaza (continued) maintaining it and access to it. "Council acknowledged that a parking problem in the area does exist, but said funds have not been bud- geted this year for expanded parking in that area. Be- cause of this, Council would not give Mr. Cesaroni an unconditional guarantee that new parking facilities would be provided at a specific time. Both parties agreed to further discussion on this problem, after a study has been made on what new municiple parking facilities in this area would cost.
