The Montgomery Chamber, in partnership with Montgomery Water Works & Sanitary Sewer Board and Kershaw Investment Properties, has secured two SEEDS grant awards totaling $2.2 million! These grants, part of Alabama's Site Evaluation and Economic Development Strategy (SEEDS) program, will fuel the development of two major industrial sites, including a 190-acre site evaluation along I-85 and infrastructure development for the 230-acre CSX Select Gold site near Highway 31. Montgomery was one of only three counties to receive multiple SEEDS grants, which will support the growth of critical industrial areas. This builds on $3.5 billion already invested in advanced manufacturing projects in the region. “These SEEDS grant awards will ensure we are ready for new growth and job opportunities,” said Anna Buckalew, Chamber President & CEO.
