URBANA – Casey's General Store has dropped plans to build a new store in east Urbana after facing vigorous neighborhood opposition.
Urbana and Champaign County planning officials both confirmed Monday that Casey's earlier this month withdrew a county petition to rezone a 1-acre piece of property at 2218 E. University Ave., where the company wanted to build a new 3,588-square-foot store. The site is adjacent to the Edge-Scott Fire Protection District headquarters.
