[QUOTE="SimplyMe, post: 77502466, member: 9588"] Again, this new law has no effect on any current Chick-Fil-A restaurant. Having said that, there are apparently a number of Chick-Fil-A restaurants that currently have open hours required of then in contacts they have signed to rent a location. For example, in their current contracts to have restaurants in the rest areas of the New York Thruway, they have hours that they are required to be open (though they are allowed to close on Sunday). Various malls have a requirement that restaurants must keep the same hours as the mall on days they are open. So, if the hours of the mall are 10-9, Chick-Fil-A must be open from 10-9, other than their Sunday exception. What NY is looking at is that people travel 7 days a week, and Sunday is the busiest travel day, so it doesn't make sense for restaurants that are part of the rest stops (again, owned by the state of NY) to not be open on the days people are traveling. Again, it doesn't affect current Chick-Fil-A restaurants as their contracts will not change. It merely affects the terms of any new contract for a rest stop restaurant in 33 years, and Chick-Fil-A is free to not bid on those contracts. In the meantime, any other Chick-Fil-A restaurants are free to keep they hours they want (or that their contracts require) and they don't have to open on Sundays. Additionally, Chick-Fil-A can buy land at NY Thruway exits and open restaurants and decide what hours they want to be open, including not being open on Sunday. Just as Chick-Fil-A is free to set their own hours (or sign contracts with hours of operation that are acceptable to them), it is the right of the State of NY (or other owners where Chick-Fil-A wishes to operate) to require a restaurant to have set times they require them to be open (to include Sundays) in the owner's building.
