News roundup: Alabama talks new jobs and Pizza Hut closes seven locations
Some 150 residents and officials of the town of Alabama got together last night to talk about a proposal that would allow a 1,300-acre manufacturing site to move into town at the intersection of Route 77 and Judge Road, according to WBTA's Chad Zambito. It seems no specific manufacturer has yet been named, though a feasibility study shows that a solar panel or flat display manufacturer might be the best fit. Nothing will get done, however, without state funding and the sanction of the town. Word is that any such large-scale manufacturer could bring "thousands" of jobs to the area.
That brings up a serious question: What would thousands of jobs, which I interpret to mean thousands of new people, mean for a town that hasn't even cracked the 2,000 mark in population? Doesn't that mean a new town? Also, how does that work? Recruiting for thousands of jobs? Are there stipulations that jobs must first come from the region? How is that possible? What other benefit would such a manufacturer have for a rural community? Would this mean the transition to more suburban living in Alabama?
Lots of questions here. Don't know if the Alabamans are already asking or not. Anyone know?
In other news, we reported yesterday on an article from the Daily News about the shady goings-on at a pair of area Pizza Hut restaurants. Today, the official word is out: Pizza Hut restaurants in Albion, Amherst, Medina, Alden, East Aurora, Grand Island and Aurora have all been closed. Zambito reports that the owners cite poor performance as the reason for closing the shops—why else would they, right—and say that they will open new locations "under the Wing Street Chicken Theme," whatever the heck that means.

I like pizza from Pizza-Hut
Their retarded-s$$ commercials say enough about these fringe products
We got 10 homeless people to eat our pasta not knowing itssdfsf ..lets watch their reaction
Whatttt?!! These nasty treats ain't from France?

From what I've read Wing Street opens up alongside Pizza-Hut locations
If there are no Pizza-Hut locations.. I don't get it.
To me it sounds like something destined for large cities, thruway rest areas, and airports
I wouldn't be holding my breath waiting for a job or chicken wings from Wing Street
If Pizza-Hut pizza can't make it
Pizza-Hut chicken wings will?
Why not add another car dealership ?
I am first to complain about Batavia and lack of jobs BUT......
BATAVIA HAS HOMETOWN FLAVOR.
I buy my pizza from : ALL Batavia shops at one time or another.
I order wings from : All Batavia shops at one time or another.
Batavia has got the best quality Pizza and Wings.
Good luck wing shack !
I tend to go for Pauly's for my wings. They tend to do a nice job.
