Intelligent Planning Process Takes Time, Avoids Chaos
by Tim Kanavel | Golden Corridor Living Magazine
The one question I get asked by a lot of people, and I do mean a LOT of people, is why companies like Lucid, Attesa and Nikola are not up and running “right now.”
Believe me when I say that I completely understand where this question is coming from when it comes to timeframes. First of all we have had a few projects in the area that have announced they were going to begin operations in Pinal County, only to fizzle out. Secondly, it is in our nature to want something now and not later.
In the world of economic development, the process from announcing to actually putting a product out is just that – a process.
It would be nice if the timeline was much, much shorter. But in reality, there are several steps to go through before a company can even break ground on a project. That, my friends, is the business of intelligent planning. Without this planning and zoning process we’d have complete chaos when it comes to what is being built and where it is being built.
