Dollar General to open Clay Township location
Dollar General will continue to expand its presence in Butler County with a new store in Clay Township.
The township’s board of supervisors approved plans at its meeting Thursday, March 5, for construction of a new Dollar General on the 1200 block of West Sunbury Road. The location is on an open lot near a couple of houses and the intersection with Vidic Road.
Supervisors also approved agreements for sewage, stormwater management and operation maintenance for the new store.
There are now more than a dozen Dollar Generals throughout Butler County, with several opening in recent years. Last year, a Dollar General opened in Center Township on Route 8. The chain also revealed plans last April to open two locations in Slippery Rock Township.
A DG Market also opened last year on South Main Street in Butler, replacing a former Rite Aid and filling a gap for fresh food access.
It is unclear when construction will begin, or how many people the store will employ.
