Lafayette County Supervisors Greenlight Urgent Industrial Park Project
UPDATE: The Lafayette County Board of Supervisors has just approved an urgent plan to utilize leftover fill dirt from the West Oxford Loop Extension project. This decision, made on November 8, 2025, is a critical step towards enhancing the Max D. Hipp Lafayette County Industrial Park and boosting local economic growth.
In a decisive move, the board has contracted Ste-Bil Grading to clear, grub, and strip topsoil on a 6.25-acre site within the industrial park. The project will transform the excess fill into pad-ready lots, setting the stage for future business developments. Officials emphasize that this initiative, supported by grant funds, is part of a larger strategy to prepare industrial park sites for prospective companies.
This project is significant for the local community, as it not only enhances the infrastructure of the industrial park but also signals a commitment to fostering economic growth. With the demand for industrial space rising, the timely preparation of these sites could attract new businesses and create job opportunities for residents.
As the work begins, the Lafayette County Board of Supervisors is set to monitor progress closely. Residents are encouraged to stay informed about the developments, as this project could pave the way for transformative economic changes in the region.
What’s Next: Authorities will continue to provide updates on the project’s progress and its impact on the local economy. Watch for announcements on potential businesses that may move into the park once the site is ready. This initiative marks a proactive approach to economic development, signaling a bright future for Lafayette County.
Stay tuned for more urgent updates on this developing story as the Lafayette County community prepares for growth and opportunity.
