County staff told the Tourism Corridor Review Board that the Sheetz convenience-store project at Route 11 and Route 39 is moving forward with a planned closing later this month; staff also reported MP2 Contractors work, a Keydet General signage permit for an October opening, and uncertainty about the Super 8 property use before demolition.

Neil Whitmore, county staff, briefed the Tourism Corridor Review Board on several commercial projects moving through administrative steps at the June 3 meeting. Whitmore said a Sheetz convenience-store project at the corner of Route 11 and Route 39 "had moved forward with the project, and were planning to close on the property later in the month," and that a boundary line adjustment had been completed.

Whitmore also reported that MP2 Contractors were moving ahead with their project and that Keydet General had submitted a permit for upgraded signage with an anticipated October opening. On the Super 8 motel near the corridor, Whitmore said he was unsure whether the motel had been emptied but noted Fire and Rescue hoped to use the building for training before demolition if possible.
