After more than a year-and-a-half, Manhasset Ventures,LLC, a subsidiary of Kimco Realty Co., appears to have been given a green light to build a King Kullen Supermarket in the Manhasset Center, better known to the public as Filene's shopping center, at Shelter Rock Road and Northern Boulevard in Manhasset. At issue at the April 18 meeting of the North Hempstead Town Board was a request for a change of zone for the property from "Parking" to "Business A." The change of zone was approved by a vote of three to two with Supervisor May Newburger and Councilmen Angelo Ferrara and James O'Connor voting in favor and Councilwoman Doreen Banks and Councilman Tony D'Urso voting against the motion. The change of zone was approved despite the opposition of a standing-room-only crowd, led by the Terrace Manor Civic Association. FULL STORY
