Hankook Factory

Post by jcox07 »

Hankook is building a major factory in Clarksville Tn. to employ 1800 people, this may be our best shot at getting a possible good lot if we can make contact with them before Hankook starts building the facility. This might be a way of getting a national event closer to our area.

Tennessee Region would have priority over that facility. ETR still might be able to get on it but you would have to get the consent of TR. Unfortunately modern land use planners like to have green spaces and islands in the parking lots and the zoning codes will require them.

No. A land owner would have to ask for an exemption and have a good reason.

The VW plant has a public accessible park with hiking, biking, nature trails. The Hankook plant needs a "tire test" facility.
