  When Russell mfg. announced they were closing numerous companies inquired about comming to the area.  A huge workforce were about to be out of jobs. Work force = jobs!  The leaders of alecander city were not interested. They did not court employers as the say. The low wage employers are who they courted 7.25- 10.00 hr. jobs. So temp agencies can flourish!  One huge company wanted to come with 23.00 average hourly pay they did not want them. This company was to imploy 250 people to start with 500 in a few years.   Almost immediatly the city went in and bought the property for a exhuberant (?) amount and now they have a less than impressive solar farm there.
