Ever wonder when those empty lots in front of the Auburn Boulevard Costco and Walmart would be filled?
Plans to bring a new 5,400 square feet Applebee’s restaurant to the Stock Ranch Plaza in Citrus Heights are currently under way, with a company executive saying the new location should open by the end of this year.

“We are excited to open our Applebee’s in Citrus Heights as it offers excellent demographics for our brand,” said Monty Davis, the market president for Apple NorCal which operates 37 Applebee’s locations in Northern California.
City Manager Henry Tingle told a group of residents at an Area 11 neighborhood meeting last month he was glad to see development in the works for the spot in front of Costco. Asked about the other empty lots in front of Walmart, he said there are several current offers for the other pads available on the Stock Ranch Plaza, but was unable to disclose their names as “they are in negotiation with the owners of the property.”
Davis said applications for managers at the new location are currently being accepted, and the hiring process for staff will begin in October.
