We have done a good job of keeping the venders out of the side by the stores. Everything was going quite well. Then we were forced to go over in the WGR lot to sell September 14th. We never requested to go over to the Jefferson lot to sell. You had your secretary type up a letter requesting to go to the Jefferson lot because you no longer wanted mLat the Church and Division lot. We preferred to stay right where we have been for many of years which you have known. We were watching that lot every week and it was all-full of cars. It was quite a mess Wednesday, September 14,2005. We tried to do the best we could. We didn't have the people come as we do otherwise. The people that did come do not like it as it is out of their way. They also like to shop in the stores when they come. As a result of us having to move we all lost sales. None of us did very well. All of the venders would like to go back to our lot again. I do realize that there was a small problem and we did solve it. It is all taken care of. I'm enclosing a map of the area that we would be using. I want to thank you for taking the time to review this letter and please share with the council members.
