Michelin decision delayed until 2015 second quarter

Whether Michelin builds a distribution center in Oconee County will be a decision to be announced during the months of April, May or June. Richard Blackwell, executive director of Oconee Economic Alliance, continued a tone of optimism today for the prospects of Michelin locating in the Golden Corner Commerce Park. But he told the alliance board of directors that a Michelin issue with what he called “a crucial vendor contract” has delayed the process.
