      <description>After about a dozen years empty, the old Taco Bell at 5500 Route 42 in Washington Township came down, and a three-bay Take 5 Oil Change has Planning Board approval to replace it. The vacant Taco Bell on the Black Horse Pike had been empty for about a dozen years when it came down on the morning of Aug. 11. Township officials and dozens of residents were there to watch. The council president made the demolition a community event, and the mayor took the first pieces off the building from the seat of the excavator.</description>
