It stated only:
The demolition permit has been issued for 160 Maplewood Avenue. The Construction Official is reviewing the application for the footings and foundation permit.
The permit comes the same week as the site itself underwent other changes, including the relocation of mailboxes. But also some problems as the flimsy plastic tarps covering the former window spaces were ripped open, causing an eyesore and potential safety hazard.
The Township is also continuing to negotiate with the six retail building owners on Maplewood Avenue who control the rear parking lot behind the shops from Village Coffee to Arturo's. The space is needed for a sewer extension for the proposed post office site building that will include a three-story, 20-apartment, five-shop complex.
Mayor Vic Deluca told us today that he is still in talks with three of the property owners, but declined to reveal specifics as negotiations continue.
Stay tuned!
