Murfreesboro Leaders Pursue Grant For Business

Posted: Updated:

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - Big job news could be in the works in Murfreesboro.

Council members authorized City Manager Rob Lyons to pursue a state FastTrack grant to pay for infrastructure to an un-named business.

The move came Thursday night. Officials would not say if it's the same business the county's Industrial Development Board is hoping to lure to the area.

The board offered that un-named company a 20-year break on property taxes in exchange for creating up to 1,100 jobs.
