The company had been working to develop a commercial truck refueling station at Kingery Highway and Route 83 in unincorporated DuPage County, just outside of Burr Ridge, but last week village trustees declined to accept a renewed proposal addressing earlier concerns.
Based mostly on Burr Ridge’s opposition, QuikTrip has withdrawn its proposal for a gas station in DuPage County — even though county leadership hadn’t finished its review procedure. The proposed truck stop and gas station, as it was originally presented to village and DuPage County and Burr Ridge leaders, has been withdrawn by the corporation after intense community backlash in Burr Ridge against added commercial truck traffic, pedestrian safety and assorted quality of life issues.
Even so, he said 16 people at that meeting objected to the petition on much the same grounds as residents did at the Burr Ridge meeting — e.g., more traffic and pedestrian safety. However, Hoss added, the county had not yet finished gathering public input for or against the truck stop and the county itself was not yet in a position to approve or deny the proposal. “As such, there was no recommendation or findings from the Zoning Board of Appeals or County Board Members,” Hoss said.
