Dickson County authorizes mayor to seek state help for industrial road to serve 'Project Orange'
Summary
Commissioners adopted Resolution 11-2024-01 authorizing the county mayor to seek Tennessee state assistance for construction and maintenance of an industrial access road to serve a prospective employer identified in the minutes as “Project Orange.”
The Dickson County Commission on Nov. 18, 2024 approved Resolution 11-2024-01 authorizing the County Mayor to seek assistance from the State of Tennessee to construct and maintain an industrial access road to serve a proposed company labeled in the minutes as “Project Orange.”
Commissioner Ray Ledger moved the resolution and Commissioner Rusty Grove seconded; the motion passed by unanimous voice vote. The minutes state the construction of the industrial access road (referred to as the SIA Road) is “necessary and vital to the successful completion” of Project Orange.
The resolution authorizes the mayor to pursue state assistance but the minutes do not specify funding amounts, a state program to apply to, or a timetable for construction. The minutes record the commission’s authorization but do not include further implementation steps or contractual details.
