FORMER BUMPER TO BUMPER SITE TO BE DEMOLISHED

The former Bumper to Bumper building at Yale Street and Springfield Avenue has been empty for years.   

At one point the property owners bragged with a sign proclaiming condominiums were going to be built on the site of the former auto body business. 

But it will soon come down, according to the Township Committee, which directed Township Administrator Joe Manning to seek bids for the demolition project at Tuesday's meeting. This follows violations related to health and code issues. 

"This building has been there, it has had difficulties to sort out who is the actual owner," Mayor Vic Deluca said at the meeting. "We told them we want the building down. They have told us to wait until they sort it out. It is really an eyesore and it's a health hazard and we need to bring it down." 

The TC voted, 5-0, to authorize the bidding. No cost was estimated
