Last month, Mayor Mary Ann Holzkamp invited representatives of the Stop & Shop supermarket chain to City Hall to begin a dialogue regarding the role the chain should take as a good neighbor in Glen Cove. Stop & Shop accepted Mayor Holzkamp's request and came to City Hall recently. During their discussions, Mayor Holzkamp said, "Glen Cove residents deserve competitive prices for quality products. I have been contacted by many of our city's residents who are concerned that Stop & Shop is trying to impede the opening of the new supermarket. Stop & Shop must be a good neighbor." Mayor Holzkamp apprised the Stop & Shop representatives of her commitment to the 100 percent occupancy of commercial properties. "I look forward to assisting you in your efforts to find a major new tenant for the former Edwards/Stop & Shop location on Forest Avenue. I know we have a mutual interest in welcoming a major retailer to that site," said Mayor Holzkamp. FULL STORY
