Chris Synder, Kathy Parsons, Steve Vaughn, Steve Brown, Linda Fulton and Lt. Governor Sue Ellspermann with Shovel Ready Award who have contributed to this process. Fremont and its citizens and government officials thank you for your assistance and aid in getting us to this point in the journey to increasing investment and jobs in our community. Thanks to All present and past Council members, Plan Commission folks, anyone who served on a committee and the citizens and businesses of Fremont – thank you for your support. Without the support and wisdom of the entire community and Steuben County, we would not be here today celebrating this designation. We know this will give us a competitive advantage leading to increased investment and the creation of quality new jobs in the community. We have always been very deliberate in the past to make sure new businesses are a good fit for our community and bring a positive change to Fremont. We will continue to be diligent to make sure any new development enhances the community so it is a good marriage for both Fremont and the company so both entities can be successful and better off in the long term. This process to get to today’s announcement has been a long one beginning in the planning stages nearly 20 years ago. During the recruitment of another company to our community in the mid 1990’s, we had discussions with each potential employer about their needs and wants and what would make Fremont a more attractive place for business to locate. One of leading items mentioned was the need for a Truck Route to allow the flow of raw materials and finished goods back and forth from our manufacturing facilities to the major roads which serve our area. A truck route which would keep the trucks out of school zone and residential areas in Town
