Public hearing on $300,000 Canton Dairy Queen grant rescheduled for Feb. 17

CANTON — The Canton village board rescheduled a public hearing on grant assistance for the Dairy Queen originally slated for its meeting Jan. 20 to next month.

The hearing will be held Feb. 17 at 6:15 p.m. The purpose of the meeting is to hear public comments on the village’s current Community Development Block Grant project which will provide $300,000 to the Canton Dairy Queen.

At the meeting Jan. 20, Village Mayor Mike Dalton commented on the reason for rescheduling.

“We had some problems with postings and making sure public announcements were out. And certainly its important that we make sure this is done right the nobody calls it into question,” said Dalton.

The Canton Dairy Queen at 51 Gouverneur St. held a grand opening ceremony last fall. The building replaces one destroyed by arson in 2018. The project has garnered Community Development Block Grant funds to reimburse the owners for some of the cost of the reconstruction and reopening.
