ee eR ee a LT ee BIA wary of Midland's latest parking plans In an open letter, distributed last Wednesday to its member businesses, the Midland Town Centre Business Improvement Area (BIA) Board of Directors raised some serious criticisms of a new parking policy proposed for the Town of Midland. After much study, the Town's Planning and Development Com- mittee intends to ask council for of- ficial approval of a "Cash in Lieu of Parking"' policy. The plan is to give new businesses the option of paying a fee for parking spaces needed, instead actually providing the required area on their own property. The 'Cash in Lieu of Parking" proposal will also apply when an existing business changes the use of its current building The new parking fees, expected to be approximately $1,500 per spot, would be used to finance the acquisition of new parking properties. In the opinion of the BIA Board of Directors, "Cash in Lieu of Parking' will be a deterrent to new business in Midland: They believe that parking availability is essentially the responsibility of the municipality, and that BIA member business should be exempt from the new policy, if im- plemented, because of the current contributions to the Parking Authority in support of free three hour down- town parking. A delegation from the BIA was scheduled to take these concerns before last night's regular meeting of Midland Town Council. Eastern Star prize list Order of the Eastern Star, Manson J.

Entry into the marina was made by forcing open a door, Midland OPP report. Taken during the daring break, enter and theft were cash, Win- tario tickets, cheques and smoke (both cigars and cigarettes). Meanwhile nothing was taken during the same period from Pier 69 also at Waubaushene. Those persons who had gained entry through a window to the office were apparently scared away before they could make off with the goods. Police believe both incidents are related. -Linda Besdorf, Midland. Twin sheets, Hectar Adams, Midland. Childs sweater and hat set, Debbie Rosebush, Midland.
