| Proposed
Technology Park
The Kings Mill Technology Park and Innovation Zone comprises approximately
250 acres of industrial brownfield land at the southern end of the
Codorus Corridor. The project area is situated predominantly in
Spring Garden Township, but includes approximately 10 acres in York
city. A portion of the area is also included in York’s proposed
Keystone Innovation Zone (KIZ). The York County Economic Development
Corporation has secured a Business in our Sites Planning grant to
conduct additional studies on the entire technology park.
The proposed technology park is heavily skewed towards Research,
Development and Light Manufacturing space for targeted industry
clusters. The Technology Park project has the potential to combine
the best of York’s industrial heritage with emerging economic
and industry trends to create a dynamic research and development
park adjacent to York College. Combined with the workforce attraction
aspects of projects like the Northwest Triangle, this project becomes
part of a powerful economic development strategy. |
