New plans for a Chick-fil-A in Hartland Township, along with a proposed Sheetz fuel station and convenience store, both cleared procedural hurdles at the local Planning Commission Thursday night.
Chick-fil-A is now eyeing the former Big Boy restaurant on the northside of M-59, east of U.S. 23. The popular fast food chain had previously been approved on the site of the old Burger King on the southside of M-59.
Sheetz is looking to repurpose the former Walgreen's site on the northeast corner of M-59 and Old U.S. 23.
Some members of the public continued to voice concerns about increased traffic along the M-59, in particular southbound Old U.S. 23, where customers of the existing CVS pharmacy and Kroger grocery store exit.
Video of the Planning Commission meeting is linked below.
