POLL: What Do You Think of the New Marc’s?

New store opens in the renovated Brecksville Town Center last week. We thought we’d get your take on it.

It seems as if Brecksville residents are split about the new Marc’s store in the Brecksville Town Center.  The store is local chain’s first since its rebranding, according to Marc’s officials. Known for its low prices, the store features fresh produce, meats and organic food — as well as a cold-cuts counter.

Marc’s Sunday Wine Sales: On the Ballot

Brecksville voters will get to decide whether the future Marc’s store can sell wine and mixed beverages on Sundays.

For voters in Brecksville’s precinct G, there’s an extra item on the ballot: Whether the future Marc’s store on Chippewa Road should be able to sell wine and mixed beverages on Sundays. The store has already applied for permits to allow beer and wine sales, but a D6 permit—the one allowing Sunday sales of wine—requires approval of local residents, Terri Kauffman, administrative assistant to Marc’s advertising director, said in an email. The store wants to be able to stay competitive with other local retailers that have Sunday sales.   The issue, Issue 27 on the ballot, would allow sales at Marc’s between 10 a.m. and midnight on Sundays.  For more election news, make sure to check our Brecksville Election Guide.
