Summary
Easton is cutting down Winter Village vendor huts from over 30 to 12 and raising fees to encourage visitors to explore permanent downtown retail shops instead of staying centered in Center Square. While some council members worry the fee hikes and reduced huts will hurt vendor participation, organizers believe it will drive foot traffic to brick-and-mortar stores.
