Well there is a Starbucks in the Target in Spring Hill and on on SR50 is another so no need for anyone to head to NPR for it and there is also an Office Depot here already.

Considering the poor economy, I'm amazed by the amount of major retailers that have broke ground or set up shop in the 2 yrs. since I've moved here. My husband & I are hoping they obviously know something we don't.

Well if the county and John Selway manage to put together the 2 million square foot industrial park which would be focused on bringing 145 hi-tech tool manufacturers here that would go a long way to jump starting the county.
It would bring about 4,000 high paying jobs here.
The nice thing about it is it would go in near the airport so it is on land that is already industrial. They wouldn't have to try and rezone any agricultural land.

I've been living in Spring Hill for almost 2 years and really like it. It's quiet, and still not that far from Tampa. Housing prices are amazing!

Mike, that would definitely be a positive thing for the county. How long has this been in "the works"? I could swear I heard about this before we even bought our house.
The airport's central location would be a great place for job seekers!

I only heard about it in the last few months and it is still a few years away but the construction jobs alone from building the industrial complex would be a big boon.

Well, with you being in real estate, you'd definitely know way more than me. Thanks for the info!

I hope the deal goes through. 4,000 high paying jobs....that would be fantastic and is just what Hernando County needs.

Yes, that area def. needs something as it's a nice hometown and a shame not to give area residents a chance at good jobs and an American dream kind of life.

They are doing so much construction and land clearing over there already. Where would this be going?
