Boardman zoning board approves new GetGo facility

BOARDMAN

Giant Eagle can now proceed with plans to build a new restaurant, convenience store, retail center and GetGo fueling station in the township.

The township zoning board of appeals voted unanimously Tuesday to approve the conditional-use permit required for the Pittsburgh-based GetGo to operate a fueling station in the township.

The facility would be located at the corners of U.S. Route 224, California Ave. and Southern Blvd.

“We’re rebranding the GetGo brand, and making it a much bigger building,” said Pasquale Avolio, director of real estate development and construction for the company. Avolio said this location will be about three times larger than the one on South Ave.

Preliminary plans for the two acres of property include construction of a 6,125-square-foot building with a 38-seat restaurant. The location would have seven fueling islands with a total of 14 fuel pumps, and would be open 24 hours a day.
