New Grocery Proposed for Former Stein Mart at Cadwell Corners
Fresh Thyme Farmers Market, which plans to open 50 stores throughout the Midwest over the next six years, wants to add Deerfield's Cadwell Corners to its list of locations.
A new market is looking to fill an empty storefront in Deerfield's Cadwell Corners.
Fresh Thyme Farmers Market is requesting a special use permit to open a 32,309 square-foot grocery store that would occupy the entire space of the former Stein Mart and create an addition at the rear of the store for coolers, according to the village.
At a recent meeting with the plan commission, some neighboring residents voiced concern for issues related to parking, traffic, outdoor sales, delivery truck hours and screening for garbage containers and HVAC units, reported the Chicago Tribune.
A public hearing is anticipated sometime next month.
