GUILDERLAND — Garry Robinson wants a bigger parking lot for his Ace hardware store at 1874 Western Ave. He plans to tear down the building next door that has been, over the years, an auto-parts shop, a jewelry store, a bicycle store, and a Dairy Queen. 

A traffic analysis says a drive-in bank would generate fewer trips than the current conditions. 

Aneesa Waheed, originally from India, met her Pakistani husband in Morocco. They offer the Morrocan food they enjoy at home in their restaurants; the third will open in Guilderland soon.

Spruce Plaza would house a restaurant, a law firm, a dentist’s office, and a nail salon. 

Wayne Crounse of 2071 Western Ave. remembers a grassroots effort by housewives from Western Avenue in the 1950s who wanted a traffic light at the corner of Route 20 and State Farm Road. New Karner Road had not yet been built.

Guilderland has received a grant of $680,800 to install a sidewalk that will accommodate wheelchairs, linking the Guilderland Library to the SEFCU building at Regency Park Drive, near Route 155.

The Department of Taxation said there is still a current warranted balance of more than $25,000.

A pedestrian-vehicle accident on Western Avenue Monday morning left a woman with injuries that police say seem serious.

One of three assisted-living facilities that may soon come to Guilderland now goes back to the town’s planning board to work out any remaining issues with the site plan.
