Town of Appomattox
“Appomattox Town Council should create a market strategy to
attract developers, suggests consultants who conducted a study. The end goal is
to attract a developer that would set up a nationally recognized retail
establishment or hotel in Appomattox.
At council’s Monday night meeting, Interim Town Manager Bill
Gillespie reviewed information generated from a $44,500 study that was
conducted by consultants from St. Louis based firm Peckham, Guyton, Albers and
Viets, Inc. Last summer, firm consultants John Brancaglione and Joseph Decpida
presented to council their preliminary findings.
Data from the feasibility market study revealed that
Appomattox did not possess the qualities that would attract a top-tier tourism
retail or hospitality developer, but a developer could be pursued if the area
was marketed as a region.”
