Fair response from merchants on parking Most Penetanguishene merchants in the hill section of Main Street, between Robert Street and Simcoe Street, have let the town office know they think there should be more parking spaces provided in the downtown area. Businessman Bill Waters approached the merchants two weeks ago and asked them to consider sending a letter dealing with "'the severe shortage of available parking spaces" if they agreed there was a shortage. The merchants who responded signed their names to a letter prepared by Waters; eleven of 18 businesses signed them and sent them to the municipal office. The best response came from merchants on the east side of the street 'where there is angled parking. The merchants request an increase in the budget of the Penetanguishene Parking Authority \o provide sufficient downtown parking spaces. A recent downtown parking study prepared for the town finds that with the closure-of the privately- owned parking lot beside the French Centre, the downtown area needs 26 new parking spaces. On May 7 the First Penetang Pathfinders held their annual baseball game at St. Joseph School. The Pathfinders invited their friends to a friendly game. The Pathfinders won the game which was played in the rain and afterwards were treated to hots dogs and drink.
