A Fortune 500 company is coming to the city, providing hundreds of well-paying jobs.
The city has taken initial steps toward annexing 147 acres on the city’s south side to prepare for the new plant. The company, as yet unnamed, signed a letter of intent to purchase the property once it has been annexed, said Clarence Hulse, executive director of Economic Development Corp. Michigan City. His group has been working with the company for about nine months.
The property is on the south side of U.S. 20 between Johnson and Pahs roads, across from Evergreen Plaza. The company chose the site because it’s flat, has easy access to U.S. 20 for trucks and can be annexed easily, Hulse said.
