Plymouth City Council Considers Two Requests for Economic Revitalization Area

The Plymouth City Council members took action Monday night to consider two resolutions designating certain real estate within the city to be within an Economic Revitalization Area for purposes of property tax abatement.

Pretzels, Inc. will be expanding to include another production line to be operational in September of this year. The line will focus on the production of a specialty-filled pretzel product. The project also includes completing a second packaging room with different packaging capabilities. The estimated expansion cost is $9 million. With this expansion, another 30 to 40 employees will be hired.

Marshall County Economic Development Corporation President and CEO Jerry Chavez commented that they knew the business would expand but didn’t know it would happen just over a year of operation in Plymouth which shows great progress and success of the company.

Weir Enterprises, LLC will be hosting daycare/early childhood center at 1717 Lake Avenue. About 60 children will have the opportunity to take part of the programs available there. Education vouchers will be accepted which is a giant step in the effort to allow children the opportunity to gather early childhood education. The new facility is opening soon.

The resolutions received unanimous council approval.
