Polk County Expected to Grow!

I hope you all enjoyed our Thanksgiving Holiday. I thought you might want to have some positive news to help you digest all that turkey! I just came away from our monthly company meeting with an air of optimism. In our meeting it was discussed about the large number of job creation projects that are upcoming for the year 2011. Mosaic’s recent announcement of their resort in the south side of Polk County (already under construction), USF Poly Tech moving ahead with their development as well as some other major projects in the planning stages that soon will be announced to the public. The key to growth is job creation and that really seems to be the direction that Polk County is going. In the last 2 weeks I have seen renewed interest in Commercial Sites that have languished on the market for the last 2 years! It appears that the pent up demand (at least on the commercial side) is being released and that is great news. I for one am looking forward to 2011! This Commercial growth will in turn feed the residential growth as well.
