Local officials from Shelby County, the City of Sidney, the Sidney-Shelby Chamber of Commerce and Sidney-Shelby Economic Partnership (SSEP) recently celebrated as Dayton Power & Light (DP&L) certified two local industrial park sites as “shovel-ready” for industrial development, the Sidney Daily News reports. The certification means the sites “have met standards set by an internationally-recognized site selection firm” including “the completion of engineering and environmental studies that assure a minimum of risk to potential businesses who are looking for a place to locate,” according to the article. Mike Dodds, SSEP Executive Director, said the process to certify the Sidney Ohio Industrial Park began over two years ago, and the Amos Industrial Park was added as local officials continued to work toward certification. “I really think this will pay big dividends for our community,” Dodds said. DP&L presented $10,000 to SSEP for meeting the deadline on each local project. For more, read the full article.
