Debby Mayer is reporting in the Columbia Paper the Germantown Planning Board will hold a special meeting Thu., Feb. 11, to once again consider details of the pending application of Primax Properties. Primax is looking to build a Dollar General retail store on Route 9G. In December, the board hired Ted Fink of Greenplan Inc. as an advisor on the application, and Fink's comments on the proposal will be reviewed and discussed at the upcoming special meeting. There remain several sticking points with the Primax application, the major issues being sidewalks and the building's appearance. The developers are prepared to lay a walkway in front of the store, but it would not connect with other sidewalks, so there is a request that Primax extend the sidewalk to the corner of Route 9G and Main Street. The appearance of the structure comes down to aesthetics -- the town wants a building that is narrower and lower than the one designed and something that is consistent with Main Street. According to the project engineer, the driveway and storm water runoff plans are almost complete. Read the full story in the Columbia Paper.
