The process for changing the zoning of some land in Kentucky for a prospective large business - could be Harley, but nobody is saying for sure - continues Thursday with a public meeting on the matter, according to The Sentinel-News in Shelbyville.
And, possibly more importantly for watchers in York, executives there also commented the final vote probably will not come until January, after Harley's announced decision-making period of December.
The Shelby County Fiscal Court gave a nod in September to the proposed changes to two large parcels of land from agricultural use to heavy industrial use. At that time, Shelby Count Judge-Executive Rob Rothenburger said it was for a client the area had been working with, but did not name it.
Speculation on the client has focused on Harley. The company recently whittled down its list of possible places to put Softail and Touring production, with just Shelbyville, Ky. and York, the current location, remaining on the list.
The zoning change was approved by the fiscal court and now moves on to the public hearing and would then have to be submitted for final approval. But an official with Triple S Planning and Zoning, which is holding the meeting, said recently the approval is not expected to happen until January.
