WOOD COUNTY, Ohio — A warehouse project slated to cost $50 million has been proposed for Perrysburg Township, the executive director of the Wood County Economic Development Commission told WTOL 11.
It's unknown what the facility will house but it's expected to bring 500 jobs to the area, according to Wade Gottschalk.
Gottschalk said the 600,000-square-foot warehouse has been proposed for 9240 Fremont Pike.
According to a document obtained by WTOL 11, it is "designed to support a wide variety of uses" and will have loading spaces, truck courts, vehicle back-up motion alarms, loading, unloading and "other typical traffic sounds for a distribution facility with inbound and outbound traffic."
