Bower Hill Road Walgreens OK'd

Despite pleas from a small group of people in Mt. Lebanon, Scott commissioners have granted approval for a Walgreens drugstore at Bower Hill Road and North Wren Drive, on the border of the two neighboring communities.

The unanimous approval, made April 24, didn't come without conditions: securing a variance from the township zoning hearing board for an 11-spot parking shortage, having adequate sewer availability from Mt. Lebanon and an executed copy of an easement agreement between St. Clair Hospital and developer Bowen Development Co., completing a satisfactory developer's agreement and addressing a minor slope issue at the site.
