Smoking Disruption At Downtown Store
One of the reason why we moved the store was because just outside our store is a public garbage can, and ppl in our town gather around that bin .. and smoke. There is absolutely nothing we can do about it, even though they are not allowed to loiter in front of our store. But we are not the ones getting it worst. The folks at Tim Hortons and the music store are actually suffering big time because of it. So much so, the owner is thinking of moving his store outta town.
Apparently, his customers had complained that they are afraid to come to his store because of the crowd outside his store .. permanently and constantly. I can’t say i blame the customer/s because i would be quite deterred too. And nope.. the town does not wanna do anything about it.. the cop can’t seems to do anything.. nor does the landlord. So we are back to square one.. left at our own devices.. even though there is a bylaw for loitering.
