DALTON, Ga. — Whitfield County commissioners agreed Tuesday night to buy about 150 acres of land for a business park.
The county will pay $5.25 million for three tracts on the northeast side of the Carbondale Road interchange on Interstate 75 in southern Whitfield County.
“We all know that the economy here in Whitfield County and Dalton is down considerably,” County Administrator Bob McLeod said. “This would be a much-needed economic zone to provide jobs with good salaries and good benefits to Whitfield County residents.”
The Carbondale Business Park will target six areas for potential tenants — plastics, automotive, chemicals, advanced manufacturing, data center and retail, according to a news release.
