Sam's Club plans for Aiken site go unconfirmed

More than a year after abandoning Whiskey Road plans for a Sam's Club warehouse superstore there is still no word from Sam's Club officials on whether or when the project might proceed. Glen Wilkins at Wal-Mart says no locations are currently being considered and past attempts near Whiskey and Powderhouse roads faced rejection by the Aiken Planning Commission in 2006. No new site has been proposed since then and a 2006 Aiken Standard note said a new site might be chosen about a month after the initial scrapping.

The measure, urged by gun rights advocates and opposed by open-government supporters, is part of a broader state and national debate. Representative Mike Pitts argues disclosure violates the Second Amendment, while advocates warn public licenses should not be issued in secret. The story notes ongoing legislation in six states and references a page 104 continuation.
