CHEEKTOWAGA, N.Y. — Despite the town saying they don't have the proper permits, Chick-fil-A plans to start construction in Cheektowaga next week.

A spokesperson for the company confirmed their plans just hours after the town supervisor told Spectrum News certain requirements and permits had not been cleared.

The former Famous Dave's Restaurant Building on Walden Avenue was knocked down back in February to make way for the new fast-food spot.

Their hope is to open the restaurant in the fourth quarter of this year.
