A new gas station could be on in its way in Clinton and the City Council tonight will take action to begin paving the way for them to come to the community.
The city block is bordered by West Van Buren, South Grant, West White and South Jackson. According to City Administrator Tim Followell, the City Council will be bringing that city block into an existing TIF distirct.
This project has been widely speculated among social media followers and Followell says the developer is from Tuetopolis and plans to build a Mach1 gas station.
Followell indicates the site is at least two or three months from the block having its structures demolished and construction started. He notes though, once the ball gets rolling, it could be by next winter the place is up.
Followell says the closing for the property will then be at the Council's second meeting in February, set for February 20.
