Washington Township CVS Hearing Continues Tuesday

The Washington Township Zoning Board is scheduled to continue hearing an application for a proposed CVS on the corner of Pascack Road and Washington Avenue during their meeting Tuesday night.

At the previous hearing, sign expert Robert Oelenschlager testified about changes he had made to the planned signs for the site. Board members had expressed concern about the size and number of signs during the prior hearing.

Two of the originally-proposed signs on the side of the building facing Pascack Road were removed from the plan, according to Oelenschlager. The various signs planned to appear on the building total about 285 square feet, down slightly from before, though the letters were still proposed to be the same size as originally planned.

The material for the sign borders was also changed to a material which looks like wood, according to Oelenschlager.

One of the two freestanding monument signs was also removed. The other monument sign was reduced from a 15-foot height to a 7-foot height, Oelenschlager said. 

The Washington Township Zoning Board meets at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Municipal Complex.
