 Snuffies Pantagis shows no interest, It seems like it is not their intention.


Here is more from TAP press about SNUFFY'S PANTAGIS 

 

The property was found to have met the criteria as an area in need of
redevelopment by the Scotch Plains Planning Board and was designated as an
Area in Need of Redevelopment by the Township Council on December 11, 2018.
Following the designation, there is a 45-day appeal period. No one from
Pantagis appealed the designation.

The Scotch Plains Downtown Redevelopment Committee has been in negotiations
with Lidl since December 2018, and held two public meetings on August 14,
2019 and September 11, 2019 specifically to discuss the plan and again no
one from Pantagis attended or spoke at these meetings to challenge what we
were working on.

The Township Council introduced the redevelopment plan for Lidl on September
17, 2019. We expect to approve it for final adoption in October. Lidl will
then have to receive final site plan approval from the Planning Board after
which Lidl will determine the construction timetable and therefore when the
restaurant will be closing.

If Snuffy's Pantagis Enterprises, Inc no longer has a land lease agreement
with Lidl I'm sure we would have officially been made aware of it through
official communication by the President of the corporation or the attorney
for Lidl, not some social media post. We will continue to deal with the
facts."

Representatives from Snuffy's Pantagis Renaissance have not responded to
TAPintoSPF's request for an interview.
