Tuscola officials see opportunities in aftermath of pick
TUSCOLA – The publicity Tuscola has received and the extensive research into its proposed FutureGen site will ultimately help Tuscola to land another major industrial development, community leaders say.
"This has put us on the world map," said Tuscola School Superintendent Joe Burgess, who also is president of the board for Tuscola Economic Development Inc. "Right now would be the easiest time for a company to come to Tuscola because all the environmental studies that were done for FutureGen are complete. I'm positive that a forward-thinking company will take advantage of the opportunity to come to Tuscola."
