More Jobs for Mesa

A new steel plant has opened in Mesa, and with it comes another 145 new jobs. In fact, 50 more jobs will open in April when their fabrication plan comes online. Mayor Smith posted several pictures from the groundbreaking on his twitter yesterday.

At this point all new jobs are good jobs, but it is nice to note that these jobs are "green" since the primary function of this plant is to convert scrap metal into rebar. As they said, this is yet another piece of the puzzle for developing the Gateway area and hopefully it can attract other manufacturing to the area.
