 | | Mr Fratesi: As far as the downtown area is concerned, most stores chose not to open and they are not complaining, believe it or not, that the stores in the malls are opening. |
 | | Mr Fratesi: First of all, I agree with you, Tony Martin is an effective member and he did try to talk the committee into coming to the community for the reasons that I have expressed. |
 | | In fact, Mayor Fratesi just this morning said if it is not broken -- and he said it is not broken -- do not fix it, leave it the way it is. If a municipality or a region wants to stay open, fine; if not, let them be closed. |
