Development in Maquoketa Planned

(Maquoketa, Iowa) October 13, 2020 – On October 19 at 6:00 PM, the Maquoketa City Council will hold a public hearing on a development agreement with BR2 Development LLC , a limited liability company located in Cedar Rapids IA. BR2 Development plans to invest approximately $5 million to construct a 27,000 square foot commercial building. The developer plans to utilize the tax rebate incentives provided by this development agreement to entice Hy-Vee to establish a Dollar Fresh store.

Designed for smaller communities, the Dollar Fresh stores serve up an assortment of fresh and new products at low prices, according to Hy-Vee. That includes a full selection of groceries, fresh baked items, a dollar section, a wall of value, ready-to-eat meal options and other services.

If approved, Maquoketa would be home to one of the first newly constructed buildings designed specifically for Dollar Fresh.
