Plymouth's Zoning Board of Appeals has delayed a decision on a proposed gas station linked to a potential Costco site off Cherry Street and Commerce Way. The board cited notification issues and water-supply concerns as reasons for the delay, keeping Plymouth in a tight competition with Kingston for the warehouse club and the millions in investment and tax revenue it would bring.
Why it matters
