This is the door to the wine route

Grimsby’s charm is the fact that original builds and surrounding land remain intact and are represented. The attraction of Grimsby is that people from the cities come here to be reminded that the “little town” of their past still exists. This is the door to the wine route. This invites commerce to our town and Niagara. If that is taken away and replaced, then Grimsby is gone forever. This is a special town, and people are drawn and live here because of its unique ability to remain special. Isn’t the function of the town councillors to listen to tax paying constituents? Keep the Main St. East just as it is, and also consider protecting small older built neighbourhoods.
