The Butler Township Planning Commission has approved a recommendation about a proposed car dealership.
After hearing from a representative for the developer of a new #1 Cochran Automotive on Evans City Road in January, the commission voted to approve the plans that would include a new left turn lane.
This proposal is for the approximately 18 acre former Deshon Woods property between the Memorial Park Cemetery and the Army Reserve. The development would include a 30,000 square foot Ford Dealership relocated from downtown Butler as well as an undetermined second dealership and a 26,000 square foot collision center.
If given final approval by Butler Township Commissioners later this month, site preparation work could begin as soon as June.
