Wholesale Club plans new retail and gas station in New Hartford
What happened
Wholesale Club is moving forward with plans to establish a retail store and gas station in New Hartford, replacing the former Macy's site. The Zoning Board approved all variances for the project, but the Planning Board raised concerns regarding light levels, potential noise at the loading dock, and gas station queuing.

Why it matters
The project represents a major commercial development in New Hartford. If the developers successfully address the Planning Board's concerns, the final site plan could be approved, allowing the expansion to proceed.
