The state’s $500,000 grant for Commonwealth Crossing Business Centre likely will be used toward building a water tank there, according to Henry County Administrator Tim Hall.
Several years ago, the Martinsville-Henry County Economic Development Corp. (EDC) received a construction cost estimate of roughly $2.8 million to $3 million for the tank, said Hall, who also is vice chairman of the organization. Development of the industrial park was not yet far enough along for the tank to be built then, he emphasized.
But the right time is approaching, he maintains.
