Olga's diner seized by the state

EVESHAM TOWNSHIP: State taxation officials have seized the landmark Olga's Diner over a $37,000 in tax bill.

Olga's has stood since 1973 at the traffic circle where Routes 70 and 73 meet.

But business has suffered in recent years as chain restaurants have gone up nearby.

Cheryl Fulmer, assistant director for the state Division of Taxation, said that the state had been working with the restaurant to pay its taxes.

But, she says, "They blew us off."

And by Friday, the diner's doors were locked.
