A former Vassar truck stop on West Saginaw Road is getting a $1 million boost from the state to clean up contamination and make way for new jobs. The 1.9-acre site, vacant since ’22, has metals and petroleum in the soil from old underground tanks. Developer Cook Chevrolet plans a $4 million expansion, including a used car lot and service center, creating up to 20 local jobs. State funding will cover soil removal, demolition, and environmental safety measures. Work is expected to wrap by summer of ’28.
