Several road improvements are on the horizon on State Street, Airport Boulevard, Lohr Road and Ellsworth Road if the Costco warehouse store and gas station is approved by Pittsfield Township officials.
At Wednesday’s Washtenaw County Road Commission meeting, Matt MacDonell, a professional engineer for the Road Commission, said Costco representatives and staff are finalizing a road improvement agreement for changes near the planned store, as well as a contribution of $500,000 for a future agreement between the Road Commission and the City of Ann Arbor for the State Street and Ellsworth Road intersection.
The Costco warehouse and gas station is planned for a site in Pittsfield Township on Ellsworth Road west of State.
Planners from the township are expected to discuss a request for rezoning of the site on Thursday night as it deliberates on master plan revisions.
