Congrats to all involved in bringing this deal to fruition. gearing up for the construction of this facility will certainly put life back into our construction industry. The technical skills needed by Hemlock will outstrip Montgomery County's labor pool. Other, more advanced, training centers will play a big role in supplying the technicians needed for this enterprise. Think Jackson, Oak Ridge, Knoxville, even Nashville. With our lower costs of living, a shot in the housing sales industry's arm is likely as well. Yes, growth is definitely going to hit us and make our horizon broader and brighter. Small town thinking and politics will be challenged. Good governance will be essential in this expansion. Here we grow!!!
