[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They want to change the rules for the County so Costco can build a mega gas station in White Oak. https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/COUNCIL/Resources/Files/20250506_2A.pdf Mink, Jawando and Friedson are pushing this change. Fani-Gonzalez introduced an amendment to retain more setbacks, but the committee blocked it. Historically, Costco tried to threaten not to build a warehouse in Wheaton unless they allowed them to build the mega gas station. The community fought back and blocked the gas station. Costco still built the warehouse. We have enough gas stations in MoCo and do not need mega gas stations next to our kids and our homes.[/quote] All this does is clarify how the distance is measured. It doesn’t change the distance. It’s a technical amendment. Nothing to see here. [/quote]
