Three gas stations in eastern Farmington Hills are slated for major improvements in the coming year.
Plans have been submitted to the city by New Haven-based Bazco Holdings LLC to demolish and reconstruct three gas stations in the city. Those include:
- Mobil at 27730 Orchard Lake
- Mobil at 29509 Orchard Lake
- Mobil at 29411 W. 12 Mile
Those stations would see several improvements, including new convenience stores, landscaping and other features. The projects were all presented to the Farmington Hills Planning Commission at its Feb. 17 meeting held at Farmington Hills City Hall.
Aly Bazzi, one of the petitioners, said the company hoped to begin construction later this year on some of them.
"We'd like to get two done this year and if weather permits, start in the fall on the third one," he said.
Plans for all three stations received a vote of approval from the planning commission. The developments now go to the city council for its review.
In addition to the new convenience stores planned, the stations would also all receive new storage tanks for fuel, John Saad, a Livonia-based architect working on the project, said.
"All the three locations we're going to be presenting, they're all going to have brand new underground storage tanks according to the state regulation," he said.

Saad said one station, located at the southeast corner of Orchard Lake and 12 Mile roads, would also likely have a pair of charging stations for electric vehicles once finished, a move made to accommodate those with electric vehicles. That was a decision that made Commissioner Steven Schwartz happy.
"This is the first time I recall that a gas station wanted to put in an electric charging station, so on behalf of my Chevy Volt, thank you," he said.
