SNOW TEASES MORE POSITIVE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT NEWS

(Richmond, IN)--Richmond Mayor Dave Snow had an exciting prediction this week.  First, Snow recapped for Common Council the announcement of two new companies that are making large investments in the city.  "Viking Manufacturing, as you may know, is bringing 111 new jobs to our city, which comes right on the heels of the announcement of the very large investment from Liberation Laboratories.  That's $115 million and the addition of 45 well-paying jobs."  Then, Snow said this at Monday night's meeting of Richmond Common Council:  "We have more exciting news on the horizon that I can't wait to share with you.  We are looking ahead to what's going to be a landmark year in terms of economic investment in the city of Richmond."  Snow did not give any other specifics about other new projects.
