Times -Advocate, July 3, 1991 Page 3 Permit system praised by Grand Bend residents Continued from front page Grand Bend had the opportunity to pay $20 and park overnight. The only problem with the permit parking was that not all landlords with properties on those four streets picked up the permits from the mu- nicipal office. Virley and Clare Sadler live on Woodwward Street, one of the streets which had permit parking. They got their permits. Although they have a driveway, the permits will come in handy. "We plan on saving our driveway for our family and parking in front," said Virley. They live in area which has been termed the "jungle". But they said, at least where there cottage is, there were few problems this long week- end. "It hasn't been bad at all," said Clare. He and his wife said they enjoy having the younger people in the village. The first long weekend of the summer, May 24 saw a record number of charges laid as the Onta- rio Provincial Police laid over 420 charges. However, the July 1 weekend was a pleasant surprise to the local detachment as they had only about 250 charges. Sgt. Bill Evans said the May 24 weekend is usually the busiest with more young people while July 1 is more family orient- ed. "The May 24 weekend you have a lot more people down celebrating the coming of summer," said Evans Tuesday morning. He said as far as enforcement is concerned, the July 1 weekend is the second busiest. "On the whole everything went really well. The fireworks brought out a fair number of people and they were all well behaved," said Evans. You could win 1991 Topaz. a Just By Shopping. in Exeter • ..... N.K.
