Tractor Supply store at risk of leaving Jonesboro
Jonesboro
Summary
Tractor Supply wants to leave its cramped 60-year-old store for a bigger site at 2308 S. Caraway Rd, spending over $600,000 on ditch and sidewalk improvements. Two of its three variances passed, but the cross-access denial is described by the developer as a deal killer that could hold up the move.

Impact analysis
More than $600,000 in site improvements plus a larger store and tax base — but the cross-access dispute could stall it all.
Shoppers get a bigger, modern Tractor Supply; the city keeps a longtime retailer and gains improved drainage and sidewalks.
If the project stalls, the aging existing store stays as-is and the planned improvements don't happen.
