Wheaton City Council Considers Aldi Expansion

WHEATON, IL - The Wheaton City Council discussed a proposed expansion of an Aldi store in town during a meeting Monday.

The Daily Herald reports:

Aldi has requested to expand the entire east side of its building at 20 West Loop Road out by about 20 feet, creating a 3,300 square foot addition. The 25-year-old building currently amounts to about 14,900 square feet.

Aldi representatives say the addition would allow the store to carry more retail products to meet consumer demand. They have plans to also reconstruct the parking lot, which is in poor condition, and expand a detention area for stormwater.

Council members did debate the size of signage at the store, according to the article.
