Developers plan to build a new gas station-with a convenience store that prepares carry-out food-on the 3600 block of Washington Blvd. in Lansdowne.

On a parcel of undeveloped property in front of Home Depot and adjacent to the Beltway Motel, a public notice has been posted for a Baltimore County Zoning Board to allow a variance for the project.

According to zoning board officials, the developer is asking to create a landscaped barrier that is five feet wide rather than six feet wide as required by code.

Zoning board officials were unable to identify the prospective tenant that would occupy the property if it is developed.

According to plans submitted to the county, the gas station would have a convenience store larger than 1,500 square feet, and a carry-out restaurant.

The hearing for the zoning variance is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 5, at 10 a.m. in room 104 of the Jefferson Building at 105 West Chesapeake Ave. in Towson.

I would be so happy if it's Wawa.

That's what I'm hearing,- WaWa's been scouting around here.

A Wawa would be awesome but it will probably just be the third Royal Farms in that mile-and-a-half stretch. Now when they tear down the Beltway Motel and build a Target or Kohls or something, I'll be really excited!

There are two Royal Farms between that location and the Exxon that was up the road from there closed down...

Now if only the county would install a couple of speed cameras along Washington Boulevard in that stretch all would be well with the world. Why should the Catonsville yuppies on Rolling Road be the only ones with speed cameras?

I wonder if when they were scouting in the area they noticed the riff-raff that will be hanging out outside the establishment. Why would Target or Kohls want to come to the area and have to deal with the people that Walmart is drawing. When I shop at Home Depot or Walmart I go right on past Washington Blvd and head to Glen Burnie. I am sick of the trash and filth in the Walmart parking lot and the beggars at the red lights. Thank heaven I don't have to travel the Blvd and see it every day.
