georgetown herald a thomson newspapers limited publication serving the communities of georgetown glen william norval limehouse hornby stewarttown balllnafad aihgrove terra cotta thursday july 27th 196 editorial comment request proves puzzling the monday closing some tike drug stores are not bound by any closing law at all but in general georgetown is known as a monday closed day as far as we know there have been no formal discussions about any change in the by law the matter has never come before the chamber of commerce which is the only overall body that might con cern itself with such a matter down town merchants have their own assogat ion and the market centre another and on occasion merchants in george view plaza have cooperated in promotion plans of their own though we do not believe they have any formal organization should the matter come to the point of an opinionn survey among merchants perhaps the chamber of commerce would be the logical group to conduct this and serve as an impartial fact finding group which could give some guidance to coun cil in their decisioi a request for diifferent store hours vhieh could throw georgetown s closing bylaw into a cocked hat provides a puz zler for the town council particularly so when it is diffncult to determine inio what category of store the zellers chain falis v and when the store has no firm commitment to locate here the matter come before council in a letter from zellers which said a george town location is beirlg considered but the firm will enter a community only if it has assurance that it can operate six days and two nights weekly at present the town closing bylaw allows different categories of merchants to set theur own hours within the frame work of a by law most groups have adopted the closed all day monday and open friday until 9 00 policy a few bakeries fruit stores and auto appliance stores for example are not restricted to watson back again wrestling fans will have another first hand lopfc

properties including that frnnge between the sidewalk and pavement which actually belongs to the town but is really trfs responsibility of the home owner to mtintain in georgetown for some reason the story is otherwise and too often a man vjho spends hours making his property a beauty spot will ignoe that pavement strip which to us provides tne tran e for the picture now we don t meant to infer t
