Atoka Struggles With Industrial Park Plans And Funding
Atoka faces a funding maze as Sequoyah Industries pulled out of a planned carpet plant, leaving federal grants and local bonds in doubt. City and county bonds total about 445000 tied to a 38 acre park site, with a potential $340000 sewage project and a $795000 water plant. The timing hinges on EPA and EDA grants, local funds, and a Supreme Court decision on voting rights for bond approval.
