Gaithersburg Planning Commission still has questions for Royal Farms

The eagerly-anticipated opening of the first Royal Farms convenience store and mega gas station in Montgomery County could move another step closer tonight. Gaithersburg's Planning Commission will continue its review of the final site plan for the project at its virtual meeting this evening at 7:30 PM. Commissioners expect to hear from representatives of Royal Farms tonight about their plan to better integrate the icebox and propane sales display into the exterior architectural design of the building. City staff are recommending approval of the final site plan.

Commissioners will also be reviewing details on the adjacent Starbucks store. Both stores will be at the Spectrum development off Watkins Mill Road. They'll also review a sign request from the owners of Kentlands Market Square tonight.
