From The Detroit Free Press (http://www.freep.com/article/20090626/BUSINESS01/90626050/1205/business0101/GM-chose-Orion-facility-for-tax-perks--stamping-plant):
GM chose Orion facility
The proximity of suppliers, a nearby stamping plant and tax abatements and incentives unmatched by Tennessee and Wisconsin enabled General Motors Corp. to select its Orion Township assembly plant to produce the next generation of its compact and subcompact cars.
In addition to saving 1,200 jobs at the assembly plant, where GM will invest between $600 million and $800 million, the automaker will reconfigure its Pontiac stamping plant where another 200 people will be needed to produce the body panels, and other metal components for two unnamed models that will be produced beginning in 2011.
it's not much, but every little bit helps :thumbsup:
