Traffic. Crashes. Noise. Pollution. Crime.

Our Zoning Board is under pressure to waive 19 laws to allow a new owner to add a busy convenience store to the gas station at the most dangerous intersection on Main Street, making it even less pedestrian friendly.

The Board could vote as soon as this Thursday, and without your support there’s no telling how it might go.

Please come to the special public meeting at 7 pm, this Thursday, February 29, at Borough Hall, 54 Fairmount Avenue.

(Use the side entrance. Take the elevator to the upper level, Council Chambers.)*
