Council to Welcome voestalpine, Eye Fee Changes
Cartersville leaders meet tonight at 6 for a work session and 7 for regular business.
In addition to contracts, purchases and a board appointment, Cartersville's city council is expected tonight to officially welcome voestalpine, an automotive industry supplier set to build a manufacturing plant in industrial park Highland 75, the city's joint venture with Bartow County.
Production is slated to begin next year and voestalpine will create 220 new jobs, according to the company's agreement with the city and county's Joint Development Authority.
Councilmen also are set to eye two ordinance changes:
- An amendment to the Utilities Ordinance would clarify capacity fees for hotels and extended-stay apartments.
- An amendment to the Alcohol Ordinance would allow businesses holding pouring licenses to pay a $100 transfer fee with changes in management. Currently, businesses pay the full pouring license fees when changing managers.
See the full agenda, attached, for all the details. Councilmen are set to meet at City Hall at 6 p.m. for a work session and 7 p.m. for regular business.
