N.B. confident in economic growth
The city remains confident in the economic potential of the Battlefords region after several major construction projects were announced or began construction over the summer.
North Battleford City Manager Jim Puffalt said growth is evident in all the buildings under construction around the city, and more development will follow.
“The Battlefords are a regional centre and there’s a lot of services here that can be used to attract people to the community and to provide services to people in the communities,” he said.
Some key developments recently announced or under construction are the Magic Lantern Theatre, the Comfort Inn and Suites, the Saskatchewan Hospital and a second A&W location.
