Another Local Car Dealership Closes - Saturday, December 6, 2008 at 5:00PM EST

HANOVER TWP., LUZERNE COUNTY- Another local car dealership is closing and consolidating as the big 3 car manufacturers plead with Washington for help

The planned rescue is estimated at between 15-to17 billion dollars, that's far less than the 34-billion dollars they were asking for 2-days ago.

Chevy dealer Blaise Alexander has been working with General Motors on a regional consolidation plan. The deal called for San Souci location in Hanover Township to close.

Gregory Price of Plains said, "Their service is excellent, their vehicles are excellent. I’m saddened by the way the auto industry is going."

About two dozen people worked at the dealership. Some of those employees are being shuffled to other Alexander family locations.
