I thought the Flagpole said it wasn't losing Terrapin, that it could have but the city stepped up to help the business expand on its current location?

Cochran and Mayor Nancy Denson have signed a tentative agreement. And ACC’s fiscal 2016 budget, approved earlier this month, includes $350,000 for an unnamed economic development project that now appears to be Terrapin.

In exchange for ACC incentives, Terrapin has tentatively agreed to invest $12 million and create at least 25 jobs averaging at least a $30,000 salary over the next six years.

Sadly, you have to threaten to leave to get love in GA as an existing business.

Their cost of moving would be high. Don't be surprised if moving is an empty threat.

No inside knowledge just experience.

That's great news I hadn't read until now.

Also, how do you guys feel about Halfmoon relocating to Prince Ave?
