Northbrook Gas Station/Car Wash Faces Strong Opposition

Neighbors and some plan commissioners expressed concerns about a proposed gas station and car wash in Techny at a recent Plan Commission meeting, with objections ranging from a fear of reduced property values, to increased traffic, to dangerous chemicals finding their way into the environment, according to an article in the Northbrook Star.

Waterway Wash & Gas, a Missouri company, wants to open the 12,000-square-foot facility at 2370 Waukegan Road, the article says.

About 14 people spoke at the meeting, which ended with the commissioners deciding to take the issue up again July 1, according to a village memo.
