Georgia Gov_ Brian Kemp is heading to an industrial site outside Savannah to make what his office calls a “special economic development announcement.”
SAVANNAH, Ga. — — A year after the state of Georgia and local government partners spent $61 million to buy a sprawling tract of land for future industrial development, Gov. Brian Kemp planned to travel to the site Friday for what his office would only describe as a “special economic development announcement.”
None of the three officials were authorized to discuss the project publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. State and local officials purchased the 2,200-acre site a year ago in Bryan County, about 25 miles inland from Savannah. The land sits adjacent to Interstate 16 that links Savannah and Macon, not far from its intersection with Interstate 95 that spans the eastern seaboard. It's also near to the Port of Savannah, the fourth-busiest U.S. seaport.
