(photo by Ellis) Our mistake A story in last week's paper on the Clinton Business and Professional Association (CB&PA) has left the wrong impression that they are backing the Business Impruvemnt Area in a plan to renovate the town core area. John Balfour, president of the CB&PA, renamed last week from the Clinton Merchants Association, said the meeting neither turned down nor backed the scheme. "We're taking awhile to see attitude on the plan," hesaid. The story also said there were 36 business people present, when in fact, there were 68 people present representing 36 businesses and professions. "It was the largest crowd to attend a business association meeting in years," said Mr. Balfour.
