MULBERRY - Polk County planners are holding a public hearing Tuesday
on a proposal to grant a brownfield designation for an industrial
plant near Mulberry.
The application is coming from KC Industries Properties on Old State
Road 60.
The plant, formerly owned by Kaiser Aluminum & Chemical Corp., has
been operating since 1957 on a 200-acre site west of Mulberry.
If commissioners grant the designation, KC Industries would be
eligible for tax credits and loan guarantees under Florida's
Brownfields Redevelopment Program, which was established in 1997 to
encourage redevelopment of contaminated sites, which are referred to
as "brownfields."
