Mannford industrial rezoning unanimously approved; should bring jobs to region

By Alex Walters

American Capital Investment’s request for the approval of rezoning 34 acres off Highway 48 in Mannford appeared before the Board of County Commissioners at their meeting on Monday. Part of the rezoning from agricultural to industrial would allow them to build an entrance to their facility directly off 48. The current main entrance isn’t suitable for either the company or the residents located behind their facility.
