Absolutely nonsense to build this side by side with Walgreens and seveneleven! During rush hours and school hours it will also create a safety nightmare with the increased traffic in that very block! And there is already way to many gas stations with the same kind of service within 5 minutes drive in any direction! It can't be profitable to open yet another one! This is crazy and must be stopped! The lot need a business that harmonizes with the block and with the community! Not working against it.

Please stop True North from putting a huge gas station next to my school.

The gas station does not make sense as there was one previously on the site that closed down. Also, there is no need for a 24 hr food mart with 7-11 and a 24 hr Walgreens close by. Please work on attracting businesses that will enhance our village.

I moved my family to Glen Ellyn because of its family friendly environment and am willing to pay for that. This encroaches on that environment and do not want in my town!

A convenience store/gas station about the size of what used to be at this corner, with appropriate architecture would be something I could accept, but this monstrosity is no where close to acceptable.

This location is not the right place for this type of has station. It is already a challenging intersection for drivers and pedestrians. The additional traffic is bound to create unnecessary opportunities for more accidents.

I don't live in the Forest Glen area, but I am so disappointed that you would put such a monstrosity near an elementary school and homes. It will completely change the feel of our wonderful town. Please reconsider this decision!

There's absolutely no reason a 24 hour gas station should be allowed within such close proximity to the elementary school.

It doesn't fit the neighborhood, especially how big it is going to be. A real eye sore. Perhaps something smaller that fits the neighborhood.

Ensure Glen Ellyn is a nice place to live. I find it totally inappropriate to have a gas station, especially this size, so close to a school and residential area. It's going to increase traffic on an already busy corner which threatens safety of our children. And there is another gas station less than a mile away. Not needed!

There is no need for this! It will really make GE look like a dumpy commercial any-other-town USA.

There is no reason to put a gas station at 5 Corners. The Environmental implications are ridiculous as is the safety of our children in Forest Glen schools.

As the northern gateway to Glen Ellyn, this has station does not match the character to Stacy's Corner Comprehensive Plan and does not represent what Glen Ellyn is about. Community matters!

Protect our community. Plenty of other options for gas in the area, please keep at North Ave or Roosevelt. Not across from our kids' school.

I am concerned about children's safety and health within the close proximity of this proposed gas station.

The last gas station at that location closed several years ago. The soil mitigation when the tanks were removed was expensive. There were many environmental issues while it was open. Just 1/2 mile north is another station. That location should highlight the Village, not detract. Find another project for that corner

Don't you care about the future generation and our environment? There are two elementary schools within few feet!
