County moves Golden Artist Colors project along
NORWICH – Following a brief public hearing during the Chenango County Board of Supervisors meeting on Monday, the board approved the next step in a multimillion dollar undertaking by local paint manufacturer Golden Artist Colors.
During the meeting, supervisors unanimously approved the submission of a community development block grant application to the New York State Division of Homes and Community Renewal on behalf of Golden Artist Colors. If awarded, the grant would provide substantial funds for Columbus based company to purchase and renovate the former Apple Converting facility on Hale Street in the City of Norwich, a $2.5 million expansion project estimated to bring 37 new jobs to the Norwich area over the next five years.
“We are in need of a little more space, which is a good thing,” said Golden President and COO Barbara Schindler. “We looked at places in Norwich and in Oneonta, and we think this is the best place ... For moving people back and forth as well as products, it’s a good fit for us.”
Schindler also noted that expanding Golden Artist warehousing and light
manufacturing to Norwich will free up space at the company’s current location in Columbus, which will be used to develop two new product lines by 2014.
At present, Golden Artist Colors hopes to have all financing committed by early March, then take possession of the 45,000 square foot facility and begin renovations soon after.
