Wegmans Saga Part Thirteen

The good news is that Wegmans has received a building permit for their new store in Columbia. The bad news is that Philip Rousseau is appealing it. He is also appealing the approval of a minor “red line” change to the Site Development Plan that allows the grocer to adjust the height and location of a clock tower.

On the other hand, Wegmans does not appear to be overly concerned with these appeals. Work continues apace at the site on McGaw Road and Snowden River Parkway. When I drove by the site this morning to take a picture, it didn’t appear that they are slowing down at all. The $10 million project is slated for completion around this time next year.
