The vote was unofficial but most favoured-Sunday open Should businesses in Midland Town Centre have the option of staying open on Sun- day? In two unofficial random surveys con- ducted by this newspaper earlier this week, both downtown shoppers and BIA (Business Improvement Area) members voted a cautious 65 percent in favour of Sunday by CLARA POWER LEO is a small lion. It stands for Leadership, Experience and Opportunity. The Leo Club in the Harbour is sponsored by the Lions Club for kids from 12 to 20 years. They, meet every, second and _ fourth Wednesday of each month. Any youngster in- opening. However, unless a two-thirds majority of the 132 BIA voters make the open Sunday choice at their annual meeting in November, the issue will go no further. Liz Downer, manager of Midland's_ BIA, reports, the board of directors knows Sunday opening is feasible here, and they just need the approval of the mem- bership. Sunday opening has only recently become an issue among Ontario's 200 BIA's, says Downer, but a great many of them are at the same stage as Midland. If BIA directors are going to pursue a tourist designation exemption from the Retail Business Holidays Act through a_ private member's bill in the Ontario some House of Commons, they need assurance businesses will indeed terested in attending seminars, and meeting with other Leo groups to work on various com- munity projects - come on out.
