Montgomery has been awarded $2.2 million in Site Evaluation and Economic Development Strategy (SEEDS) to fund two development sites in the city.
The Montgomery Water Works & Sanitary Sewer Board is collaborating with Kershaw Investment Properties LLC. to implement the funds for infrastructure development, said madeinalabama.com.
“The SEEDS program equips local developers with the tools they need to ensure communities like Montgomery can compete on a national level,” said Ellen McNair, Secretary of the Alabama Department of Commerce.
Part of the grant will be used for Kershaw Investment Properties to evaluate a 190-acre site along I-85 for future development. The second part will be used to fund infrastructure development at the 230-acre CSX Select Gold site near Highway 31.
“This achievement reflects the strength of our partnerships with the Water Board, the Chamber, and Goodwyn Mills & Cawood,” said Ray Roton, Chairman of the board. “Together, we are ensuring that Montgomery remains a top destination for businesses looking to invest and grow.”
