Industrial Site
A building site must be available in the community to attract new industry. The site must be either owned by the community or contractual arrangements must be in place to obtain the property once the location decision is made. The site must be well drained, attractive, accessible to utilities, transportation, and other services. The industrial site should be well maintained and available for viewing by industrial prospects at any time.
Many communities have existing available empty structures that may be attractive to industry. Information about the structures should be a part of the community’s economic development marketing package.
