Garden City pads lure potential sit-downs for Home Depot site
Garden City remains hopeful as developers discuss restaurant plans near the Home Depot site after a 2002 1.5 million sales tax incentive. Chamber officials cite interest from non franchisers and a family Italian restaurant while noting no firm location yet. The 10 year agreement runs through 2015 with about 1.26 million still expected to be paid.
