I would say there's practically no challenge to development. Chick Fil A in Connecticut has been notorious with affecting the traffic in the area. If you were to come in with a proposal, you should be ready to provide solutions for traffic build up.
If you're in the right zoning, abide by the codes in design, and have the franchising all set up for yourself, you are really in the clear.

Ok that’s interesting man. You know how I can get in touch?
Edit: what are the current challenges in order to get one built in Bridgeport? Getting intrested franchisees, etc.

We need more anchor stores to help out our small businesses. Funny enough, I can tell you for a fact that the Economic Development office really wants a chick fil a.

Would this work? I’m aware of my grammatical errors and whatnot, and lack of detail, poor communication skills etc.

Sounds good! Present solutions to traffic, and considering downtown is zoned mixed use (with differences based on intensity) should be all good to go
Edit: I’m not a developer, if this is to become a reality I’ll need to get a franchisee on board.
