Panama City may get port tenant

   December 14, 2007

Panama City has an Intermodal Distribution Center to go with its port. It’s an industrial park near Hwy 231 for companies who agree to use its port. The News Herald reports that B&C Technologies has signed a pending agreement to build a facility at Port Panama City’s Intermodal Distribution Center. B&C, a supplier of commercial and industrial laundry equipment, has been offered 20 acres at $40,000 per acre to build a manufacturing facility in Panama City at the IDC.

Meanwhile, the Pensacola City Council is studying again what to do with a RFP for land at the port that will be available next summer for mixed use. This comes after the council has had a blue ribbon committee chaired by Jerry Maygarden that recommended mixed use back in 2004. And after the council passed a resolution in 2005 agreeing to move to more mixed uses at the port.

Panama City acts. Pensacola studies.
