Pine Lake breaks ground on Family Dollar store

On Feb. 7, Pine Lake’s mayor, city officials, police chief and community members met at the future site of a Family Dollar for a ceremonial groundbreaking. Construction has already begun on the more than 8,000-square-foot Rockbridge Road location. Mayor Kathie deNobriga said that this particular Family Dollar will look a little different than others in the area and will have special features such as bike racks and benches out front to give the location a community feel. McMichael’s Construction Company and the Boos Development Group are overseeing the building of the Family Dollar store, which is scheduled to open in April. Photos by Travis Hudgons
