From Daily Local News

EAST GOSHEN – For Diptesh Patel and family, it’s finally time to make the donuts, as the television commercial used to say.

But it wasn’t an easy road for Patel and his attorney, Patrick McKenna of Gawthrop Greenwood PC, to travel since they first proposed the idea of putting a Dunkin’ Donuts Beverage Cafe into a former Citadel Federal Credit Union branch.

The credit union branch in the Goshen Village Shopping Center has been vacant almost eight years, but it still took nearly two years of negotiations with the township to get the OK to put in the state-of-the-art Dunkin’ Donuts. Read more in the Daily Local News.
