Proposed Vehicle Wash Development on Monroeville Boulevard
A&L Realty LLC cleared both conditional use and site plan approval for a car wash on the Boulevard. An old house-turned-business will be demolished and an unused curb cut filled in, though the nearby traffic signal will not be upgraded.
Demolition of Blighted Properties
Council approved tearing down a blighted building at 2338 Monroeville Road and buying 236 Taylor Street for the Tri-COG Land Bank — both aimed at cleaning up problem properties.
Monroeville Mall Redevelopment Status
A resident pressed Council on Walmart/Cypress's unfulfilled promise — made over a year ago — to hold a town hall on mall redevelopment before filing any application. She vowed to return monthly until she gets an answer.
Childcare Center Conditional Use
The Learning Nest is expanding its child care operations by opening a new facility dedicated to older children at 2640 Pitcairn Road, helping meet local demand for early childhood education.
Seven Brew Coffee Shop Development
A new modular drive-thru coffee shop is planned for 4111 William Penn Highway on the former Rite Aid site. The project will bring 75 jobs and a dual-lane stacking system designed to handle peak morning and afternoon traffic rushes without spilling onto Route 22.
Fox Plan Self-Storage Facility Development
Developers proposed a 72-unit self-storage facility on Fox Plan Road, drawing concerns from neighboring residents regarding lighting, fencing, and access hours.
