Attendance at the Red Cross Blood Donor Clinic was down slightly, probably because so many people leave the area at March break. Still, committee member Don Bower was happy to report 99 people registered to give blood and 94 units of blood were collected. Included among those were 14 firefighters from Port Perry, who, rumour has it, 3 want to challenge their coun- terparts in Cgesarea next time. And that clinic will be held June 15.

Preliminary mall plan gets a real rough ride A preliminary plan for a new shopping mall in east end Port Perry got a rough ride wheh p because of the current economic conditions. And he said that a future Monday to Scugog councillors. "I hope you can come up with something more innovative than that. It (the plan) looks simply awful," said Regional councillor Yvonne Christie to Bill Meek of the Michael Stuart Group, the company trying to develop the 85,000 square foot mall on the east side of Highway 7A, directly across from the Port Perry Plaza. And later in the meeting, Ward 1 rep Ken Carruthers said he doesn't like the plan very much either, "It's not a very attractive plan for (land) idential might include about 120 condos and town houses between the mall and the Lake Scugog. But they would be geared for the local market, "reasonably afford- able," said Mr. Meek. Despite the reservations d by some s of council, Mr. Meek said he expects to present more detailed sketches in several weeks.

And -he is negotiating 'with another tenant interested in taking floor space of about 8,000 square feet. The plan calls for parking for 405 cars in front of the mall. In response to the criticism of the plans, he said that while they show the basic lay-out of the mall, further plans to be presented to the council will show elevations and what the plaza will look like. "We are trying to come up with a design that is most economically viable for that site." said Mr. Meek.
