Virginia faces shortage of shovel-ready megasites
Virginia is short on industrial megasites that are fully prepared, or 'shovel-ready,' for large-scale economic development projects, according to reporting from Virginia Business. Such sites are critical for attracting major employers like manufacturers and data centers, and the shortage could put the state at a disadvantage when competing for big investments against other states that have certified sites ready to go.
Why now: States are competing intensely for large manufacturing and data center investments, making site readiness a pressing economic development concern.
