The retail property at 409 Lynn Fells Parkway in Saugus is the former location of Petrie's Flower Shoppe and requires a special permit from the town to allow the new owner to operate a business other than a flower shop. We believe the Town should grant this permit and allow Russo's to move to Saugus.
About Russo's
For more than half a century, Russo Tux & Formal Wear has been more than just a store—it's been a trusted companion for generations of families during their most memorable occasions. From proms to weddings and everything between, Russo's impeccable service and affordable elegance have graced countless celebrations, sharing in every laugh, every dance, and every cherished moment.
Supporting Russo's expansion into Saugus is our way of securing not only the continued success of a beloved business but also enriching our community fabric with a partner who has always put community first. Russo Tux & Formal Wear intends to bring the same dedication and warmth to Saugus, contributing positively to the local economy and weaving itself into the tapestry of our community events and traditions.
Reason
Why Sign This Petition?
The property is a retail space that should be allowed to host any type of retail business. Formerly a flower shop, a transition to a smaller retail establishment will not put any stress on the neighboring homes and businesses.

because these people are so nice and deserve business like everyone else!

My favorite place to rent formal wear for all occasions. Would love a location closer to Revere, we miss the Everett location dearly.

Great company, great owners, brings business to saugus yet saugus is finding a way to block it. Interested to help this ghost town anyway I can
Saugus
I believe it’s a beneficial business to the Town of Saugus. The fact that you can practically touch the Marshall’s building from the proposed Russo’s Tuxedo building makes the abuters argument against this business moot.
