WINONA, Minn., July 25, 2001-- The Third Street porn store that's targeted by a citizen campaign to move elsewhere actually has a "perfect location" amid Winona's "busy nightlife," said manager Chad Fiksdal. Downtown Book & Video is central among the downtown college bars, he noted in an interview: "We couldn't attract more customers if we tried." He said that people make "quick stops." Most custommers are college students traveling by foot, he said. Late night is busiest, the busier the bars, the busier the shop. People commuting between the bars "stop in and check out the merchandise," he said. On average, more than half of the total sales are made near closing time, he said. Between 10 p.m. and midnight is "rush hour," said Fiksdal. Fiksdal said that even reluctant customers are more likely to enter a porn store "when they have to walk right past it." Fiksdal said that Jake's Bar, a former downtown tavern, brought a lot of business. People would "mingle" between the two spots, he said. He said that although Jake's is now out of business, the porn shop's clientele is still mostly bar-roamers. He said that the other high-sale time is between noon and 1 p.m.: "We get a lot of people running in on their lunch break."

WINONA, Minn., July 25, 2001 -- A member of the anti-porn STOP steering committee, Joe Morse, called for yet another round of citizen calls to City Council members for anti-smut zoning. In a letter to the Daily News edtorial page, Morse acknowledged that the city could be moving into expensive litigation by changing zoning regulations aimed at sexually oriented businesses, but, he said, it's worth it: "Citizens must decide if we want our city officials to defend a strong ordinance, which will likely end up in the courts, to get this pornogaphy store off our main street." Morse said he knows people who are afraid to go downtown near the store. Two nearby stores have gone out of business and a third may leave the neigborhood, he said.
