Upscale fashion a big | part of Bobbie's After 16 years in the retail, Bobbie Dupuis has taken her "'first crack at owning my own business." The result is Bobbie's Fashions, located in the ex- panding Village Square Mall in Penetanuguishene. The store opened on Aug. 19 and already Dupuis says Regulations people have expressed tremendous inerest in her special line of women's clothing. She is selling designer fashions with names like Esprit, Thalie, Guitano and Almost Heaven. The Guitano line is not there yet but she expects it to ar- suggested for marine owners Cont'd. from pg. 1 Black water, or toilet waste, cannot be flushed from a_ boat without first being taken to a marina with pump-out facilities. It was suggested at other - times during the evening that grey water should not be considered environmen- tally safe and should not be dumped in the bay. Another source of con- cern throughout the even- ing was the number of boat slips suggested in the report. It recommends that the number be frozen at 1,800. Tony Lancia, the president of the Penetanguishene Chamber of Commerce and the Tiny Township Ratepayer's Association, said this was 1 'financial boon to marina owners" since-those slips already in existence would increase in value since no more could be built. "Let's face it, this creates a monopoly." To rectify this alleged concentration of owner- ship, Lancia recommended that "a regulatory bylaw be set up" which would ar- bitrarily set a fixed rate at which marina owners Affordable The provincial govern- ment wants municipalities to ensure that 25 per cent of new housing is "'affor- dable." Simcoe County is not im- mediately affected. Golden Horseshoe regions and cities are required to con- form within one year of the The Best is Even Better Now} could rent boat slips. "They (the marina owners) could raise the price to $1,000 a month un- til they find someone will- ing to pay it." Lancia's proposal was flatly rejected by Sullivan who said, "I don't think it's legal; it's far above a mun- cipalities power to tell a business man how much he can charge."' Picking up on this point, Carol Baker, the- manager of the Midland Chamber of Commerce, said, "A lot of people think the committee is against commercial development. I don't think that's what the committee is all about." Baker's principal con- cern was that the report suggests that boat's should no longer be used as all- year residences. To this Peter Brasher replied that "a boat is for going places; it isn't a sta- tionary residence." "Says who?"' Baker.

The garments' are described by Dupuis as something that you can "dress-up or dress-down"' in, as casual but smart. As for accessories, there are scarves, belts, ear-rings and lace collars (which she says are '"'selling well right now). The people who have been buying at Bobbie's have been selecting the "best qualilty clothing." That's who Dupuis expects her best clientelle to be: people who expect fine fabrics and contemporary style, even though "these are things which you can wear everyday." RENTALS _INFANT ».
