The shop thing should be a rule set by the town owner. I think a big reason for having a shop not in the market is to not worry about it being closed if there are times when you cant keep it stocked.

lostbit, You can set up rules on your town board regarding keeping shops stocked and paying rent, these rules aren't here to change that.
These rules are regarding what opportunities a town owner has to give a player before demolishing their shop/house and reselling it.
If they don't keep their shop stocked, and it's a rule that you must keep your shop stocked in the town, then you can evict them after posting a sign with the date in the doorway of their shop stating that they have 2 weeks to restock their shop or they will be evicted from the shop, and of course waiting the two weeks for them to restock or move out.
Same for rent-- if they haven't paid their rent, and it's clearly stated that the lots are rented, then you post a sign with the date. If they don't pay up on rent before the two weeks are up, then they can be evicted.

Regarding dunsjohn note, at townville the last step we take is sending a pm to the player. (normally 2 weeks after signing the place out)
We think this is a better option than mailing because the player will receive a real email (if not opted out). Most of the players that left the game will not even respond.
We also recommend players to buy vaults (we provide those if needed) and those are for "lifetime", This way the risk to loose worthy stuff is less.
However those are part of our town rules, and as Danni said, are optional to main rules.
We really think and tell residents that activity is what keeps the town going. We dont want ghost buildings to spread over the town, nor to expand forever.
We are very happy with this set of main rules, we think that this will improve minetown and help to create a good town base on the server.
Cheers.

"- Town owners have permission to set other rules for their town as long as they are fair and do not go against these rules or the main rules for Minetown."
I will add the rule of shops must be given 2 weeks notice before being removed, thanks for pointing that out x
