Julie emphasized the importance of such initiatives in addressing a widespread challenge in our communities. https://youtu.be/KNuHwqy7quQ
Meijers Store Update
The long-awaited Myers store project that began over 10 years ago remains in limbo. Julie shared that the company still hasn’t purchased the land behind Spitzer, and traffic concerns on Route 82 through Northfield Center continue to be a major obstacle. With numerous other Myers locations having opened in the region since the project’s inception, Julie expressed her personal opinion that the store may never materialize.
