Dunkin’ Quits

Cooperstown

This is an artist’s rendering of the proposed Dunkin’ Donuts/Baskin Robbins co-branded site that the company has now withdrawn.

COOPERSTOWN – Dunkin’ Donuts today advised Village Hall it is withdrawing its application to build a co-branded outlet with Baskin Robbins in the village, Mayor Ellen Tillapaugh Kuch confirmed a few minutes ago.

Village Zoning Enforcement Officer Jane Gentile received an e-mail this morning announcing its decision to terminate its plans for a lot at Chestnut and Walnut Streets.  “Dunkin Brands is requesting to formally withdraw its application from further consideration,” the company said.

Plans for a six-month moratorium on that site will still go forward, she said.

The plans were decried by citizens at a packed hearing by the Historic Preservation & Architectural Review Board.
