The 3rd Avenue Northwest Park now has Facebook and Twitter accounts and through them we've learned the general opening dates for Wegmans and Kings.
Work on the sites for Wegmans and the Kings bowling alley are progressing as construction has re-started this spring. As reported on Patch, Wegman's grocery store will be going in at 53 Third Ave. and the Kings bowling alley will be at 52 Second Ave. Since the last update on the sites, the Wegmans parcel looks a bit further along. Rocks and other obstacles have been removed and a lot of earth has been moved about. The Kings site across the street is still mostly a parking lot but there is machinery making progress. (Check out our pictures of the two sites above). The Northwest Park project also has entered the realm of social media. There is now a Facebook and Twitter account for the "3rd Ave Burlington" project. Thus far the accounts have…

The following is a letter to the editor: I have number of concerns regarding the proposal to petition the state for 10 new liquor licenses. Restaurants and bars along with hotels and hospitals are enormous generators of sewer effluent. Although the force main is soon to be completed that project will not create any additional sewer capacity. We are at the end of the sewer line and the communities downstream are just as busy as we are trying to build. How long will it be before we return to sewer surcharging as a regular event?
