Plainfield approves Dutch Bros plan as Wawa proposal is denied

Plainfield’s Plan Commission approved a primary plat and development plan May 4 for a proposed Dutch Bros coffee shop at 1805 E. Main St. The public record identifies the proposed site as less than one acre.

At the same meeting, the commission denied a development plan for a proposed Wawa convenience store and fueling station at 1516 E. Main St., the former Walgreens property near Dan Jones Road. It also denied an amendment to earlier zoning commitments and forwarded an unfavorable recommendation on the requested automotive-commercial rezoning to the Town Council.

The development decisions come as the Indiana Department of Transportation studies U.S. 40 through Plainfield with a project focused on safety, mobility, traffic operations and pedestrian connectivity.
