Commissioners will approve the building materials for a proposed 13,500-square-foot grocery store in the Matthews Gateway development on East John Street.
On Monday night, town commissioners approved further discussion for a mural and other aesthetics associated with the plan.
The grocer has not been officially announced, but the renderings have a font that looks similar to a Trader Joe’s.
Channel 9 has reached out to the grocery store to ask if they are building here. A spokesperson said the grocer is always looking for new neighborhoods to expand in, but they have no news to announce for Matthews yet.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
