Forest Park hears pleas to site engraving plant
A Forest Park meeting debated locating an engraving and color type printing plant on the south side of Harrison street. Proponents argued the plant would hire dozens of skilled workers and bring families to Forest Park, while opponents called for restrictions and questioned impacts on the town. Community leaders formed committees to press for area access and discussed funding needs including an ambulance donation.
