The Forsyth County Planning Commission balked at a nearly 500-home, mixed-use development proposed for the southwestern part of the county at its June 28 meeting.
Commissioners approve QuikTrip on McGinnis Ferry
The Board of Commissioners met virtually for its regular meeting on Thursday, Dec. 17, due to rising COVID-19 concerns.
During the meeting, commissioners approved a Conditional Use Permit to allow QuikTrip to build a store with gas pumps on 4000 and 4010 McGinnis Ferry Road, east of Ga. 400. The motion for approval was unanimous with Commissioner Cindy Jones Mills absent.
The CPU for QuikTrip was discussed in a prior meeting between the Planning Commission on Tuesday, Nov. 17. District 2 Planning Commissioner Stacy Guy presented the proposal.
“I think [the gas station] will be a good fit,” Guy said. “QT’s been a good citizen locally, and they build an attractive product.”
