Home Depot Coming To Williston? -- December 2, 2014

A reader sent this comment:
The Williston Planning and Zoning approved the proposed Home Depot at Chandler Field in Williston.
Around 110,000 sq. ft. (next to the new Holiday Gas Station Store) on 2/85 west Williston.

At the link, the information is at paragraph (g), bottom of page 13, going into page 14.
The reader notes that this will be the second large "home improvement" store in Williston.
The reader provides additional information:
The Williston store will be slightly smaller than Minot's (at around 127,00 sq ft) but still a nice-sized store for the Williston Market. 
The lot it is going on is pretty tight, so probably the reason for the smaller store.
The city approved about 20 less parking spots for the Home Depot so they could fit in on the lot. Menards is the second home improvement store (much larger at over twice the size of Home Depot). Menards is coming along well with the walls and the roof already in place. 
I'm guessing they will work through the winter so they can have a spring opening!

Menards is the 2nd Home Improvement store (much larger at over twice the size of Home Depot) . It is coming along well with walls and roof already in place.
