The site was rumored to have been purchased by Sheetz when Bob Evans first closed. Anyone know what happened with that?

That 7-11 down the road tried to get folks to sign a petition against putting a sheetz there. Apparently it worked.

Rumor is royal farms bankrolled a fake grassroots opposition to block it. The argument was “there’s no need for another gas station convenience store on York road.” Well it was successful, sheetz was blocked, and low and behold a couple years later that massive royal farms (4th in the York rd corridor) was built 4 doors down from the sheetz location with no opposition
