Panera Bread Proposal, Sign Dedication Coming Up This Week

Coming up this week 

Talks continue this Thursday night regarding the proposed Panera Bread restaurant and retail space by Laganella Properties at a Route 17 north site right next to the new Equinox Fitness Club. 

The Paramus Zoning Board of Adjustment will hear further testimony Aug. 15 , picking up where it left off at the end of June. According to a NorthJersey.com neighbors whose residential homes are near the property voiced concerns that a restaurant being constructed in a retail zone could be detrimental to the neighborhood. 

The hearing is set for 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 15 at Borough Hall.
