Stop Mall Group Fundraiser Tuesday

Roxanne's is hosting this one, starting at 5 p.m.

The second of two fundraisers hosted by the Committee to Stop Mahwah Mall, a resident group that has a pending lawsuit against the township and has been fighting the development of a 600,000 sq. foot shopping center at the International Crossroads site for over a year, is Tuesday night.

Between 5 and 11 p.m., Roxanne’s will donate 30 percent of all sales to customers who identify themselves as Stop Mahwah Mall supporters to the group. The enclosed porch at the back of the restaurant will be reserved for CSMM supporters.

Last May, the CSMM sued the township in an attempt to invalidate an ordinance allowing for the shopping center to be built on the Crossroads property at the intersection of Routes 17 and 287. The hearing on the suit is set for Friday.
