Virginia study urges aggressive plan to attract industry
A 13 member commission proposes a state wide industrial development corporation funded by private money to attract industry. It calls for creating a new Department of Economic Development and transferring the Elko tract in Henrico County to the corporation for site development. The report favors a governor appointed commission to replace the current board and seeks about 200 000 more in biennial state funds for advertising salaries and programs.
