PENFIELD, N.Y. – Good news for customers who love Costco.
The warehouse club is looking to add a second location in the Rochester area.
It would anchor a proposed 51-acre mixed-use development on both sides of Route 250 near Sweets Corners Road, according to a spokesperson for the Town of Penfield.
Costco opened in CityGate on Westfall Road nearly a decade ago.
News10NBC reached out to Costco for information. A spokesperson told us:
“Unfortunately, it is our company policy to not comment regarding future Costco warehouses until we are ready to share details about the new location (usually 2-3 months in advance).”
The Penfield Planning Board has planned a public hearing for 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 8 at town hall, 3100 Atlantic Ave.
