The town of Saint-Josse has announced the launch of a market every Saturday around Place Saint-Lazare. Retailers have expressed their dissatisfaction because they are worried regarding unfair competition as well as disruptions that might discourage customers from shopping on a busy day, reports BX1.
Traders and ecologists are calling for an alternative and asking that the market day take place on Tuesday. The Greens tabled a motion aimed at modifying the regulations of the future market and were supported by the Socialists who sit in the majority. This situation reflects the divide between Mayor Emir Kir and the socialists.
Pending the publication of the new text, the first edition will take place this Saturday.
