The existing land for industrial development is already equipped with roads, water and sewer. The Plan provides for more roads, water and sewer in the Blackthorn area.

Eagle Freight USA proposes to purchase all of Lot 3, which consist of 5.19 acres in the Toll Road Industrial Park. Eagle Freight proposes to build a 20,000 sq ft building, with a possibility of expanding the building in the future. The building would contain offices, packaging and warehousing sections. Eagle Freight's purchase price is $160,000 for the 5.19 acre lot. However, Eagle Freight did not submit a plan, the proper proposal forms or the 10 percent performance guarantee. The staff recommends accepting the bid from Rick Newman because he has an existing, operating business in the Toll Road Industrial Park and he needs to expand it. Purchase of portion of Lot 3 will allow Crystal Mountain Water to expand and will leave four acres of Lot 3 for another business to purchase.
