The year 2012 was a year of growing
investment and jobs for the Tellico West industries.
Tellico Reservoir Development Agency (TRDA) Board Chairman and Monroe County Mayor Tim Yates said though
the county's unemployment rate (9.1 percent) is still higher than
what officials would like to see, the job stability, growth and
increased investments in the Tellico West Industrial Park are
encouraging.
According to TRDA, the industrial park
reported 400 new jobs during the past 12 months, bringing the total
employment in the park to 3,700 jobs. See full story in the Sunday, Jan. 13, edition of The Advocate & Democrat.
