Cole slaw sandwiches may be coming to Springfield Township.

Primanti Brothers sandwich shop – which is famous for its signature cole slaw, fries and meat sandwiches at locations in Pittsburgh – is in the process of opening a shop in Springfield’s commercial district in the Village of London.

“They have been a very good group to work with, a very financially stable group,” said Lee Ligo, an architect from Slippery Rock who spoke to Springfield planners on Monday.

Ligo made an agreement with Primanti Brothers to sell his property, which sits on Route 208 between the Interstate 79 south exit and Eat ’n Park, two months ago, he said.

Ligo purchased the parcel, which is over an acre, two years ago.

“I always thought it was the most valuable property” in the busy district, he said. “It’s location, location, location.”

But before it can be considered a location for Primanti Brothers, the township requires Ligo to have at least 15 items taken care of, said Barb Brown, township administrator and zoning officer.

However, Ligo’s conceptual plan, which he presented on Monday, brought up concerns with her and the planners.

Some items needing addressed included a fire lane, landscaping plan, lighting plan, traffic study, stormwater plan and parking plan. Concerns about traffic flow were also mentioned by Brown and the planners.

Ligo said all those items are being addressed. He hopes to have a final approval by December to seal the plan with Primanti Brothers – but with the pending items, Brown isn’t certain that is possible.

“I’ve never seen it done (that quickly) before,” she said.

Ligo said preliminary approval by the planners, who meet monthly before Springfield supervisors – who make final approval on development plans – would suffice by December.

His lot has two buildings, including one that housed a former garage and Subway shop. The other was formerly a sporting goods store.

In the former, Enterprise Rent-a-Car has set up business in the past year.

Enterprise’s 15-year lease agreement will transfer to Primanti Brothers, Ligo said. Primanti Brothers has also agreed to enter into a lease with Ligo, who wants to set up a business in the same building as Enterprise: “like a rent-an-office for people to meet and talk,” he said.
