Seneca expects little effect from Proterra move

The maker of Seneca’s all-electric buses is California bound, but the city expects it will notice little impact from the move.  Seneca’s Ed Halbig says it’s his understanding that bus-maker Proterra will add a new manufacturing component in the Golden State to take advantage of West Coast demand for electric buses.  “It’ll have very little effect on us.  The folks that we work with will still be in the Greenville area.  There will be some management moves over to the West Coast, but we can deal with them through emails and phone calls,” says Halbig, director of Seneca planning and community development.
