The economic, employment and business climate was certainly heating up last week in our community as three companies announced over a billion dollars in investments in Sterling Heights to support projects that are also expected not only retain area jobs but to also create thirteen-hundred new jobs. Governor Jennifer Grandholm exclaims, "the American Auto Industry is back" as Ford Motor Company plans to invest $150 million in its Sterling Heights transmission and axle plants. The investment is a part of statewide investment project that totals eight hundred and fifty million dollars. This new investment follows a recent announcement that the automaker will invest more than sixty four million dollars in its two Sterling Heights facilities.
