NASHVILLE (AP) - The state is beginning a site certification program to aid investment and expansion.
The Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development said the program will set a consistent standard to help companies decide where to locate.
According to a department news release, a hallmark of the program is ensuring that Tennessee sites are ready for development, whether through marketing the top ones available for a prospect or helping uncertified locations get better prepared.
A new website for the program is SelectTennessee.com.
