Baldwinsville, NY Lysander residents are mobilizing and signing petitions to stop a $120 million warehouse proposed for 122 acres here.
The 1 million-square-foot center, which would be built in three phases, would be equal in size to the floor space of almost two Carrier Domes.
United Auto Supply has submitted its proposal to the town, and residents can speak about it at a public hearing at 7 p.m. today. The town will admit 25 people at a time because of Covid restrictions, town officials said.
