I wonder what the net loss to all of the counties in NW Georgia has been over the last couple of years? I bet we will hear all kinds of excuses but, then I look at Dekalb, AL and they seem to be adding industries all the time.

State Sen. Jeff Mullis of Chickamauga was “shocked and surprised” to learn of the closure from Al Hutchison at Georgia Northwestern Technical College, who notified several local leaders on Thursday of the imminent plant closing.
“Our job now will be to do everything we can to find a replacement company to recruit to Walker County,” Mullis said.
Northwest Georgia Joint Development Authority, which Mullis heads up, is planning to work with the Georgia Department of Labor on a job fair for the displaced Blue Bird employees.

Looks like Maglev Mullis is on top of things again... just like he was on the Trenton Shaw plant.. I guess all those thousands county goverments give him really pays off. After all he IS in the top 10 Most Influential Georgian's...

Guess he didn't answer the phone call or call him back to find out what was going on....lol...lol...

Maglev "shocked and surprised"? He really has his finger on the pulse of economic development in the area doesn't he?
