LANSING -- A Toledo-based company that plans to build a $12.4-million plant in Detroit to build parts for Chrysler Group LLC is among 10 projects granted state tax credits with promises they'll produce 1,507 new direct jobs, Gov. Jennifer Granholm announced Tuesday.

Ohio Module Manufacturing Co. plans to hire 200 employees at the plant, which will build chassis for the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Dodge Durango assembled at the Chrysler Jefferson plant. The company will get a tax break worth $1.8 million over five years.

2 weeks ago, I went to Costco to pick up some groceries. At the same time I arrived (around 6:15 p.m.), I noticed a city truck also arrived at the store. Interested what a city truck was doing at the store, I followed the presumed City of Toledo employee into the store. This particular employee was in no rush inside the store. He took his time checking out patio furniture and other items. He even tested some of the furniture out by sitting on them and even spent time checking out the in the foyer area of the store.
