Potential QuikTrip Move in Maplewood Draws MRH Response
Parents and school officials shared their opposition to QuikTrip's potential move near the high school at the intersection of Manchester Road and Big Bend Boulevard.
A plan that paves the way for 's move to the intersection of Manchester Road and Big Bend Boulevard gained preliminary approval amid an outcry of opposition from Maplewood Richmond Heights parents on Monday evening.
In a 3-2 vote, the Maplewood Planning and Zoning Commission offered its approval of rezoning the northwest corner of the intersection to allow QuikTrip's opening. A sixth member abstained. The move still requires final approval from city council.
If approved, QuikTrip would move from its location at the intersection of Big Bend and Flora Avenue to the current store located beside the high school building.
