Do these.houses have led paint? If so the white one was scraped and painted with no proper remedeation protection.

Lead is only one of the problems. Ask the people who own the houses BEHIND the site, as they have definitely been impacted. Or the condo owners on the side of the site - how much are they going to appreciate a DRIVE THRU right next to their very highly taxed condos. Do the taxpayers have no say in this? We still haven't answered the question as to why we need a drive-thru CVS, when there is a BRAND NEW CVS a couple of miles over the hill in Westwood, while at the same time there is a RITE AID in the WT strip. Do we really need another mega drug store? When are the meetings for the public's input? Not necessary, right? Enjoy people. Hey - maybe they'll get the right zoning for a 24-hour drive thru?

Thanks Jim - appreciate the "head up"!

this is stupid! just pure stupid! NO ONE needs another rite aid, when there are two within less than 5 miles of our town! If the public is allowed at the meeting, I may or may not drop by then and speak, til then, my thoughts are it's a stupid. THINK OF THE PEOPLE, NOT YOURSELVES!

The residents of Twp of Washington DO NOT WANT another drug store, when CVS is less than 3 miles away, and rite aid is a mile down the road.

I'm a resident, and I have no problem with a CVS. It's much better than the two eyesores there now.

Using the logic that this town does not need two drug stores, the why would we need two pizza stores either. I guess this means I won’t be seeing any of the you in Originals when they open. I wouldn’t want to be seen as a hypocrite.

It is not up to anyone of us to decide whether or not the town “needs” a second drug store. It is up to the free market, that is the American way.

Rite Aid does not accept all prescription plans, mine is one of them, which one of you will volunteer to drop off my prescriptions and then drive back and pick it up in Westwood for me?

I agree with Dana, a CVS in that corner will vastly improve the appearance of the area. Also, I agree with Steve, let the free market decide whether we need a second drug store or not. My Mom's prescription plan is not accepted at Rite Aid either.

I'm always amazed at the unlimited demand for drug stores... That being said, if land can be donated to add turning lanes on Pascack, the store could be a win-win for the land owner and the community.

Well, I guess driving less than three miles to patronize the CVS in Westwood is just too much for some people to fill their prescriptions --- AND the huge RITE AID in the strip mall doesn't have the "right" prescription plan - then by all means, let's construct a duplicate mega-drugstore on a critical corner in our town to save the two mile drive to Westwood for the few whose prescription plans don't "work" at the Rite Aid. And, regarding the pizza parlors - I'm actually quite excited that Original is coming back to the strip -- as they were there when I moved here over 30 years ago. As was the small pharmacy/gift shop next door "the Winding Ridge Pharmacy". Yes, we have multiple pizza parlors, but last time I checked they didn't require major acreage -- a new traffic system/ traffic light, and an impact study of what the car/bus situation will be (have you seen the policeman checking his clipboard at SEASONS in the morning checking bus/car traffic). The eyesore you speak of was "created" by the current owners who took liberties in developing a commercial property without taking into consideration water issues and easement issues for starters. Let's ask the taxpaying residents on Meisten and in the condo complex how they feel about a mega CVS on that corner. I'm guessing they feel their property values will greatly diminish by being bordered by a commercial strip.

Big Pharma .

I think it would be a blight for the Township of Washington and an eyesore.
Pascack Road is rather picturesque the whole length from Paramus up through Park Ridge.

Let's not forget the potential blessing in disguise. They will hopefully FIX the intersection and widen the intersection. That is the real problem with that corner.

If seasons really cared about our community he would rethink the type of construction and down size it and put some town homes or condos or even rebuild and put 3 new homes which we will still be able to collect taxes.but please do not get blinded by the smoke and mirrors by seasons he needs more parking for his hall plus needs more room to store his goods off site.we do not need anymore buss since half the shopping center is vacant or close to it.some how he got approval by angus smith yrs ago to clear cut trees and put fill in .we do not know where that fill came from and they raised the grounds up like five feet next to a c1 stream. Go figure I cut down 6 over grown shrubs and re planted 16 new shrubs and I got a summons had to go to court and harassed by angus smith who in my opinion is a Hippocrate and the reasons why our town is paying the price for all these problems that were never addressed.thank goodness she is gone.

The question remains - what is the zoning board doing approving another huge mega drugstore in our town, when we already have one (RITE AID) in a strip mall that has empty businesses? And, then ........there is a duplicate megastore not even three miles away? Anyone familiar with what happened in Park Ridge across from the diner? First, it was a successful restaurant. Then, it was sold and rebuilt as a huge mega drugstore. Nobody went there (too many super drugstores in the area, perhaps) so it sat vacant. Then, it was a dollar store! Come on people ... let's use our voices, and our heads -- our elected officials do not have our best interests at heart. Right now the only argument about the property in question is the SIGNS ---- really? When's the town going to hold a meeting for the townspeople to attend and voice their opinion? How about a town hall meeting where the taxpayers get to have an impact on the decisions being made that affect their property's value. Go to the WT tax collector and demand a re-evaluation of your property. It's the only language that this town understands. After all, many of Westwood's residents did, and it added up to almost $17 million in re-evaluation. Now, municipal jobs will have to be evaluated ---- that's what we need to do! Force the evaluation of several municipal positions - and whether they are effective - or needed.
