What about suggesting the shops to post their requests to OpenStreetBugs 
(1)?
What and when they want.
The shops have a "contact"=*, haven't they?
And OSB has a howto for non-mappers hasn't it?
A howto explaining for example that one must not say "invert that 
one-way" (seen it) but set it towards north, or towards the street end 
crossing with street X.

Cheers,

André.


(1) and to post in their shops "Latest shop News @ OSM.org" ?
