Passaic County files eminent domain lawsuit over $106M project

Two weeks after breaking ground on a $106.4 million government complex in Paterson, Passaic County went to court to secure a 242-square-foot strip of neighboring property after it was unable to reach a deal with the owner. The county filed an eminent domain lawsuit seeking temporary use of the neighboring land for two years to access the construction site. The county offered $5,600 to use 241.9 square feet of a commercial property at 332-344 Main St. for two years but could not reach an agreement with its owner, Empire Package LLC, said a complaint filed Oct. 27 in state Superior Court. Story continues below photo gallery. The property borders the former Passaic County Jail site at 11 Marshall St., where a six-story office building and parking garage are planned. The county had the land appraised in September by Wade Appraisal LLC of Metuchen. The firm valued it at $115 per square foot and used a 10% annual rental rate to calculate the cost of the two-year easement. That came to $5,564, with no additional damages assessed for the rest of the property. The county set its offer at $5,600 and sent it by mail Sept. 25, with another copy delivered

Looking back: West Milford 40 years ago

Plans to demolish an existing A & P supermarket building in the Union Valley Road, Hewitt eight-acre “West Milford Shopping Center” with a new company store replacement were announced in 1996. The new building was completed and approved for occupancy by Township of West Milford officials, many of whom attended the Grand Opening in 1999. This was the third time an A&P supermarket was located in the township. In the late 1920s, the store was in a small building on Greenwood Lake Turnpike overlooking the south shore of Greenwood Lake. The second market location was in a new A&P building on Union Valley Road across from Our Lady Queen of Peace Church. That building was demolished and replaced by the existing building. The business finally closed when the A&P Company liquidated all locations in 2015. Cosmos, the latest of a couple of other unsuccessful supermarket chains in the existing building failed to attract enough customers for profit.
