Tyson sends 'open letter' to Leavenworth County; is exploring other options

"[A]fter Monday’s reversal of support by the Leavenworth County commissioners, we will put our plans in your community on hold. We still have interest in Leavenworth County, but will prioritize the other locations in Kansas and other states that have expressed support," said Tyson Foods' group president of poultry, Doug Ramsey, in an "open letter" to the "Leavenworth County Community." Tyson Foods is weighing its options after the Leavenworth County Commission rescinded its “resolution of interest” to issue $500 million in revenue bonds to support a proposed $320-million chicken processing complex near Tonganoxie, Kan.
