A McGehee based company that recycles agricultural polypipe plans to construct a fence to “minimize visibility” at their plant.
According to the McGehee Dermott Times-News,
WB Agriplastics is located on the west side of U.S. 65 coming into McGehee from the north, just before the overpass.
McGehee officials including Mayor Jeff Owyoung report receiving calls from people complaining about the plant location being “unsightly.”
A company statement that was issued after the Mayor contacted them said they plan to install a large privacy fence around the property which is expected to be completed in the next couple of weeks.
The company went on to say their headquarters is now in McGehee and an estimated 30 jobs will be added to the workforce.
