Continental Wind Power Announces Facility
Continental Wind Power announced today that they have chosen the City of Santa Paula to locate their wind turbine manufacturing plant. They plan to open office space here in the next month or so and announce the specific location of their new plant in the next 60-90 days. The plant should generate 300 jobs over the next few years. In addition, they are encouraging their supplies to locate facilities in Santa Paula as well. The plan should be operational sometime next year.

I feel this is wonderful news for the City of Santa Paula. To think that there may be an opportunity for more jobs in this town is something to celebrate.

The old orange packing plant off of 10th would be an ideal location for Continental Wind Power to set up shop. This would be an improvement over a Super A food store and the specter of eminent domain to tear down existing business and homes for a mediocre food store.

Anon 7:10 I disagree. The Tenth
Street corridor should be retail
not industrial. A state of the
art facility should be built for
a state of the art industry. We do
not want to impede traffic along
potentially scenic highway 150
to Ojai, with any industry or
manufacturing facilities. It is
best served as a residential and
retail corridor with all the
amenities of a lovely valley,
and put manufacturing and industry
along the 126 so they can have
access to the major arteries such
as the 101 and 5 freeways, and
they can be hidden carefully by
keeping ENOUGH "Greenspace" of the
existing Greenbelt to use as a
buffer.

What about using the empty car dealership on Hallock for a Super A market?
What about the mercados in the area of 10th going out of business?

The ideal property for Continental is the large parcel across from Calavo off of Telegraph. It has easy access to Peck.
