New McDonald's Restaurant Full Steam Ahead

It’s full steam ahead for the proposed new McDonald’s restaurant here in Thompson. They are set to close their main restaurant in the near future so they can build a new bigger location.

 

Speaking to Arctic Radio News, City of Thompson Deputy Mayor Colleen Smook says that they’re the first group to take part in a new initiative from the City aimed at growing and attracting business. The program, which is the result of three years of planning and discussion, creates tax and service fee credits for businesses seeking to reinvest in their commercial or multi-family residential facilities.

 

Deputy Mayor Smook added that two pieces of legislation were passed at the last regular meeting to do with the project, one with regards to the number of parking stalls allowed and another to do with the sale of land from the City to McDonald’s.

 

The new restaurant is currently scheduled to be built, and fully operational, this year.
