 We'll come this time next year. The city of Baxter will have several top name new retail stores for residents to enjoy. One of the latest tenants to be announced is the national sports retailer Dick Sporting Goods. Our Logan Gaye has more in the progress of the project and an update on all of the developments. It's been a long time coming, but the city of Baxter is ready to begin construction on the national retail companies that are coming to the area. It's exciting for the community anytime we can see a year like this with the potential to bring so many new businesses to the area. A few of the retail companies will include today Max, Ulta Beauty, Petsmar, and the latest retailer was confirmed as being Dick Sporting Goods. All of them will share a 90,000 square foot building off of Elder Drive. Up until now they had called it an unnamed sporting goods retailer, so the city is really pleased that that announcement was made by the developer and we're excited to have them in the city of Baxter. Construction for the project is scheduled to begin as early as the end of the month. The tenants of Ulta and Petsmart and TJ Max would open, hopefully by the fall of 2017 and Dick's might be until the spring of 2018. Originally, construction for the project was supposed to begin last summer. However, due to unforeseeable circumstances, construction for the project had to be postponed. There was a large push to start construction in August of 2016 and that didn't happen for their own reasons, but luckily for this area, they didn't go away and they kept at it and we should be ready to start construction here soon. The development will bring new opportunities for the community. In Baxter, Logan Gay, Lakeland News.
