What is Project Tim?
by kleinbl00

    "As of this time we cannot share details on the precise nature of Project Tim," according to the document, which the city of Durand has been distributing to residents. "... It will be a high-tech industrial development unlike anything that you have probably ever seen before."

    The company's document describes a massive manufacturing facility unlike anything in Michigan — in terms of size — that promises to create 800 full-time jobs in "Phase 1."

    The document describes a sprawling facility 6,200 feet long and 3,900 feet wide that would top 550 acres in size. (A square mile is 640 acres.) If built, the plant being proposed in Durand would be 50 percent larger than the 16 million-square-foot Ford River Rouge Complex. It also would be bigger than the tiny 499-acre nation of Monaco along France's Mediterranean coast.
