The Schugardts, along with seven other business tenants at the Bridgeport Road plaza, were served with 30â€"day eviction noâ€" tices at the beginning of June. A subsequent behindâ€"theâ€"scenes battle eventually earned a 30â€"day reprieve, but that only slowed down the bleeding, it didn‘t stop it. *‘We felt helpless at the time, but now with somewhere to go, things don‘t seem as bad," said Mr. Schugardt, who will open a new store in the Glenridge Plaza next week. ‘We‘re very lucky to have a politican like (Waterloo Ald.) Andrew Telegdi and I‘m sure other people in the mall feel the same way," added Mrs. Schuâ€" gardt.
