The proposed Dollar General Store will be the topic of discussion when the Egg Harbor Town Board holds a public hearing later this month. The public hearing, which was postponed last November due to concerns with the coronavirus, will be at 6 pm on Thursday, February 25. A developer and representatives for Dollar General will first present their project. Then, public comments by people wishing to speak will be allowed up to three minutes each. A spokesperson from an opposing group called “Eggs Against Dollar General” will have ten minutes to present their concerns over the development, including a 9,100 square-foot building. Construction of the proposed project would be located at the corner of Highway 42 and Hillside Road. Supervisors will not participate in the public hearing discussion but will be the only people allowed to be physically at the Town Hall due to COVID-19 concerns. Town Clerk and Treasurer Pam Krauel says members of the public can join the meeting via video conferencing or phone. You can find details on how to participate in the public hearing below.
