After some debate Brussels
council gave permission Monday
night, for a Listowel woman to
operate a ‘‘food wagon” in the
village on Homecoming weekend.
Dorothy Hymers explained to
council that she had recently
operated for a weekend outside the
Flea Market at the corner of Mill St.
and Turnberry. Councillors said
there had been some complaints
that customers were buying food
there but going to a local restaurant
to use the washrooms.
That brought up the subject of
the nearby public washrooms and
whetherthey shouldbeopen more.
Councillors suggested that for
Homecoming weekend the wash
rooms should be open during the
day but closed at night. Councillor
Malcolm Jacobs reminded council
of the problems the village had
experienced with vandalism when
washrooms had been left open at
night.
Council at first, on motion of
Councillor Jacobs, told Mrs. Hym
ers it would put off its decision until
otherfoodservinggroupsin the
community had been contacted to
see if they objected. Later, how
ever, the subject was reopened.
Councillor Gordon Workman said
he didn’t see how council could
turn the request down. Mrs.
Hymers had been gracious enough
to approach council, hesaid, but he
would be surprised if other mobile
food facilities came into the village
without permission that weekend.
Council Neil McDonald said he
thought council should do some
thing to stop so many out of town
people from coming in selling
things and taking the money out of
town to the detriment of local
tax-paying businesses.
Councillor Workman said he
agreed it was a problem but that it
had been happening for years and
he didn’t see how council could
prevent it.
Councillor Jacobs said that if the
Homecoming attracted as many
people as expected, there should
be enough food business for
everybody. The food wagon selling
chips and other fast food, he said,
wouldn’t attract people away from
church breakfasts, etc.
Council passed a motion per
mitting the wagon to locate at the
corner of Mill St. E. and Turnberry
for a licence fee of $5 per day.
