The Lemoore Planning Commission will conduct a public hearing at its Special Meeting on Wednesday, February 23, to consider and accept public comments for Tentative Parcel Map No. 2021-03. It concerns a request by Olam West Coast, Inc. to divide a developed 24.95-acre parcel into two parcels.
Olam is an international food company, based in Singapore. It wants to sell off the northern 15-acre tomato processing side of the business, while retaining 10 acres of the processing plant site to continue its granulated garlic business.
City Manager Nate Olson says he understands Olam has several interested buyers for the big tomato plant that shuttered a few year ago in Lemoore: ”It would be major priority for the community to regain those jobs."
