New Jobs Coming to Michigan

Comments 0 | Recommend 0

 It's the words we've all been waiting to hear- Governor Granholm has announced 20 new business projects here in Michigan that promise to bring more than 6,800 jobs.

The governor says the relocations and expansions are worth a total of 685 million dollars in new investments.

At today's announcement, 20 businesses were granted tax incentives by the Michigan Economic Growth Authority, marking the second straight record month of job creation projects in our state.

The projects approved today are expected to create 6,853 direct jobs and 2,642 spin off jobs.

Granholm says the 20 projects are spread across the state, including some in Ann Arbor and several in West Michigan.
