Rascally rabbits

Wow, what a difference a few weeks makes!

At the last Planning Commission meeting Developer SamCar said that Weis Markets was NOT a definite for the Sullivan Trail/Uhler Road site. At this past Thursday's Planning Commission meeting Weis Markets said that they do plan to build on this site. Hmm, adding to the intrigue, SamCar also introduced alternate plans for a CVS just in case they lose the challenge to spot zoning ordinance 298.

Maybe, the real plan is to scale down the size of the Weis Markets in order to build BOTH a Weis Markets AND a CVS on this site if for some inexplicable reason we don't win the challenge to spot zoning ordinance 298. Wow, if this happens, talk about an even worse traffic nightmare than if we end up with one or the other! You gotta give SamCar credit, the PR/Spin battle is obviously gearing up big time.

What everyone MUST remember is this. We are NOT against another grocery store in Forks Township. We are however 100% against spot zoning.

We love a good mystery as much as anyone, but with our current Board of Supervisors, the story lines just seem to become more transparent as the days and developers roll on.
