Mayor L. Traboulay and members of Council,
City of Port Coquitlam,
2272 McAllister Avenue,

Port Coquitlam, B.C.

Dear Mayor and Council,

We at Marks Work Wearhouse are a tetail campany selling work
and casual clothing. As many of our customers work Saturdays, we

feel Sundays are an important shopping day.

Our campetitors in the Coquitlam area are able to open seven
days a week which provides an advantage over us. :

The decision to open a location in Port Coquitlam was selected.
partly on the basis of being able to Open on Sundays and holidays
which we subsequently lost shortly after opening. Our informal: |
visitors survey shows that most of our custamers are in favour of
Sunday shopping. The ability to open Sundays will provide additional
employment in these difficult economic times.

We would appreciate an opportun:ty to discuss our position
regarding Sunday and Holiday openings at council's earliest conven-
ience,

Yours truly,

Cathy Fox,
Manager,
Marks Work Wearho ise
