Planned expansion of popular Citrus Heights gas station stalled

By Sara Beth Williams–
A proposed expansion of an existing gas station on Greenback Lane has been withdrawn from review, according to the city.

The original application for the expansion of the Sam’s Club gas station has been withdrawn due to inactivity, according to Citrus Heights Communications Officer Marisa Brown.

“Revisions were required, but delays in resubmission led to withdrawal. The applicant remains interested and is expected to resubmit at some point,” Brown said.

Previously, Brown explained that applications that sit without a response for six months are considered withdrawn.

The original site plan proposed adding two new fuel pumps, repaving, restriping with appropriate ground pavement markings for drivers, and reconstruction of asphalt and concrete curbs, as well as the addition of another canopy and associated lighting. Further landscaping plans call for the addition of multiple new trees along with necessary irrigation and the removal of 10 existing trees.

The shopping center where Sam’s Club is located has recently seen two new tenants, including Yummy Buffet Grill and Sushi which opened late in 2024, and Triple Crown Cages, a new baseball and softball training facility that opened in January.

The date of re-submission of requested application revisions for the fuel station expansion project was not immediately known by the city.
