Plans to add a supermarket at Long Meadow Shopping Center could mean that Long Meadow and Maugansville fire companies might no longer be able to hold their annual carnival there.
The center's management has told the fire companies that they can't guarantee space at the center.
Debra Hunt, marketing director and property coordinator for the shopping center, said the center is seeking a supermarket tenant.
A supermarket or other new tenants may have parking requirements that would preclude having the carnival, Hunt said.
"We don't want to lose a potential tenant," she said.
Hunt said the center and its current tenants support the carnival, which has been held at the shopping center for 11 years.
The annual carnival will be held this year from Monday, June 8, to Saturday, June 13.
James Kraus, president of Long Meadow Volunteer Fire Co., said finding a new location for the carnival will be difficult.
