The Reading Housing Authority board has learned that Mayor Vaughn D. Spencer and Sen. Judy Schwank recently contacted Aldi Inc. about the lack of a grocery store in the area of the authority’s 525-unit Oakbrook and 120-unit Sylvania homes.
Stacey J. Keppen, deputy executive director, said the recently closed Bottom Dollar store in the 400 block of Lancaster Avenue had been a great neighborhood resource for the homes.
