Michigan Named Eighth from Top in Job Creation and Economic Development

According to the Governor's Office, in May 2013, Site Selection magazine named Michigan the 8th most competitive state for achieving success in job creation and economic development. That great piece of news followed a whole bunch of other great signs Michigan is on the right track.  For more information check out Governor Snyder's blog at the Governor's Office <governorsoffice@govsubscriptions.michigan.gov>

Rogers City is showing great job creation and economic development action too.  Shortly after Moran Iron Works announced that it was creating about 35 new jobs in Rogers City at the Port of Calcite Collaborative, the DaVita Corporation announced that they were creating about 20 jobs in Rogers City with a new dialysis Clinic to be located at the Mariner's Mall.  The Port of Calcite project is in full swing as I write this.  The Dialysis Clinic is under construction as of last week, and it is scheduled to open later this year.

Other possible economic development projects with the potential to create new jobs in Rogers City are being studied at this time.  However, these projects are not confirmed, and I may not disclose any information at this time.
