Last night, Ray Culbert, Manager of operations engineering for General Motors, made an appeal to the Monroe City Council. He wants Monroe to offer tax abatement's as an incentive for GM to choose Monroe for a $101 Million investment in plant and inventory.
"There is only 1 site that GM wants and it's in the Monroe Commerce Center, accross the street from Kohl's Internet Distribution Center." said Ray Cubert.
The facility is thought to bring in approximately 185 jobs that will be filled primarily with current displaced GM employees. Annual payroll will be approximately $9 Million
