LOWELL, Ark. — A Costco Wholesale could soon be coming to Northwest Arkansas.
Lowell Mayor Chris Moore confirmed with 5NEWS that, "the project has submitted a large-scale plan on Thursday for review by staff."
The Lowell Board of Zoning Adjustments will hold a public hearing Monday on the application for a variance. According to the agenda, the warehouse is planned for development on the southwest corner of Pleasant Grove Road and Concord Street.
The project is requesting permission to vary from landscaping/screening, signage and lighting requirements. Once comments are addressed, the project developers can go before the city Planning Commission if they wish to continue with the project, Mayor Moore said.
5NEWS reached out to Costco for more information about the project. A company spokesperson released the following statement:
"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). In the future, please visit our website. There you will find the names and dates of upcoming locations."
