Washington City Council Eyes Expansions

Washington City Council set its agenda for their September Action Meeting on Monday night. Council will be looking to approve an expansion project for the Get Go gas station and convenience store. Plans are to demolish and rebuild a bigger store to accommodate anticipated liquor sales. The gas pumps will stay where they are currently located. Council will also have a first reading of an ordinance to expand the current business district to include several properties along Walnut Street. Council will approve parking changes along W. Maiden Street in front of the TRIPL building. All parking from the corner of South Main and W. Maiden along W. Maiden up to two spaces past the TRIPL building will be eliminated. That change is part of the Highway Occupancy Permit from PennDot granted to TRIPL. The reason for the change is sight distance around the building.
