The Western New York Coalition for Progress is set to release its own, independent report on how much Bass Pro would revitalize this area.
"I don't think Bass Pro is going to all of a sudden turn Buffalo into some kind of bustling city," says Coalition member, Alan Bedenko. He says the group's report examines both Bass Pro's contract with the city of Buffalo and what effect the chain has had on other communities its settled in. During that research, Bedenko says, "I have yet to hear a bad word about Bass Pro."
The report comes as Bass Pro's officials are expected to update Western New York leaders on its plans to renovate the Memorial Auditorium downtown.
The WNYCP report comes out tomorrow.
