SUMMARY: Development continues in the city of Laurel, with plans for an existing company to relocate and potential for new businesses. The city council recently approved the use of a tax increment financing plan to help fund infrastructure improvements, with Jones County contributing ad valorem tax. The land, which is 27 acres, will potentially house more businesses and development is being actively pursued. Additionally, there are plans to address traffic congestion in the area, including requesting a traffic light from the Mississippi Department of Transportation. The project is expected to bring growth and opportunity to the city of Laurel.
