(La Porte County, IN) - It looks like another Dollar General will be constructed locally. The store would be in Springfield Township along U.S 20 just east of State Road 39.
Whitney Pizzala, the civil engineer for the project out of Kalamazoo, Michigan, said
a center turn lane on U.S 20 would have to be added to improve traffic flow in and out
of the store. She said improvements are also planned to the approach at a nearby mobile home park for residents living at the mobile home community.
The La Porte County Commissioners on Wednesday expressed support for a change in zoning from residential to business to allow the store to be constructed at that location. A final vote on the zoning change request is expected at the next commissioners meeting on January 6th.
