Proposed Fulton County industrial park annexation in Town of Mohawk

Summary

Fulton County's economic development arm bought a 330-acre farm — 154 acres of it in Montgomery County — and reportedly wants to annex the Montgomery portion for light advanced manufacturing. Residents fear heavy truck traffic past the Fonda-Fultonville school, loss of active farmland, and a repeat of a fight the town won ten years ago.
