Planning board approves Euro Street LLC plan to convert former Boston Market at 20 Wyoff Avenue into restaurant
Summary
The board approved a tenant-site review allowing Euro Street LLC to open a Greek restaurant at 20 Wyoff Avenue; applicant testified to a roughly 3,000 sqft buildout, about 25'30 employees, seating near 50 and use of roughly 20 overlay parking spaces behind the property.
The Waldwick Planning Board approved a tenant-site application on June 25 for Euro Street LLC to rehabilitate the former Boston Market at 20 Wyoff Avenue into a sit-down Greek restaurant.
Counsel Russ Anderson introduced the applicant and George Chrissikos, who was sworn and gave details about the proposed operation. "It's a fast ' casual Greek restaurant," Chrissikos said, describing a menu of gyro, rotisserie chicken and pork, salads and sides. He estimated roughly 25 to 30 employees and said the interior is approximately 2,985 square feet with seating for about 50.
Board members focused questions on parking and access. Chrissikos said there are about 20 overlay parking spaces behind the property and that he expects to maintain the lot; he confirmed security and lighting plans are being developed. The planning officer noted some documents (a detailed parking-space breakdown and signed access agreements) were not yet provided but did not register an objection to the tenant review proceeding.
Following a motion and roll-call vote, the board approved the tenant application and instructed the applicant about the 45-day public-objection period that follows publication of the approval resolution.
What happens next: the applicant may apply for building permits and proceed with required construction steps, but the transcript notes the 45-day window during which a member of the public may object to the published approval.
