Tuesday night at the Clinton City Council meeting, City leadership announced another new business is primed to make DeWitt County its home.
Meyer Utility Structures will go in the former Arcosa Wind Tower site north of the Clinton US Highway 51. City Administrator Tony Harris credits DeWitt County Development Council Executive Director Curt Homann and County leadership for all coming to the table to make this happen.
Mayor Helen Michelassi is proud of how everyone came together to meet the needs of this company and work with them to get set up in DeWitt County.
According to Harris, this new company will bring over 100 new jobs to DeWitt County, and that is very exciting.
The collaboration between the City of Clinton and the DCDC has been a standout for Harris. He has been very pleased with the way everyone is working together and feels the City of Clinton and the County are all going in a positive direction.
Representatives from Meyer presented to the City Council on Tuesday night. Interestingly, Arcosa is the parent company of Meyer - who, once the wind tower manufacturer left - did not sell the facility; instead, it has been preparing for this operation to manufacture electric utility poles.
