In a release today from the City of Columbia, Mayor Pamela Hoots would like to dispel apparent rumors in our community. The Dairy Queen restaurant is still coming to our community and is hoping to break ground within the next 45 days.
The following statement is from Justin Kraus, Chief Investment Officer, who has been working with the city on the new Dairy Queen location. The statement was received late yesterday:
Mayor Hoots,
We are extremely looking forward to bringing a new Dairy Queen restaurant to Columbia, KY as we were really drawn to the community. We have been continually impressed with the support and responsiveness of city leaders and partners. Upon completing the first ever, new building design plans and permit approvals, our plan is to be open for business this year.
Thank you,
Justin J. Kraus
Chief Investment Officer
Mayor Hoots commented, “We are extremely excited about Dairy Queen coming to Columbia. They have been a pleasure to work with over the last year.”
