Cabelas_store_in_St_Paul,_Minnesota,_USAAbbotsford Council has decided to move ahead with a major retail development on McCallum rd just off the freeway which would include a Cabela’s store. They gave third reading to the rezoning and OCP amendment last night.
A number of concerns have been voiced around the size of the project, especially the parking lot, and the amount of residential land lost, concerns which Mayor Henry Braun says can be addressed during the development permit process.

“There are still some things that have to be ironed out with staff.  Council has obviously signaled that they are prepared to see this development proceed.  Now staff will have to work with developer on various issues.”

The vote on final approval will come at the next council meeting.
