By Donna Westfall – January 6, 2017 – From Roger Gitlin, Supervisor 1st District – "This past week, Sheriff Apperson, County Office of Education / Superintendent, Jeff Harris, and I (Del Norte District 1 Supervisor ) met with WalMart General Manager, Peter Davis, to discuss the challenge of securing hard liquor from those shoplifters and irresponsible adults who facilitate accessing liquor from the public aisles into the hands of juveniles at WalMart. WalMart Store #1910 displayed incredible leadership by announcing ' the liquor will be locked up' and secured for responsible purchase. I'd like to commend and thank Manager Davis and Corporate WalMart for this role of leadership. It it is my hope Safeway and Rite Aid and other City-located retailers will adopt similar security measures, keeping minors and hard alcohol apart. Well done, WalMart Store #1910."
