Tomco Inc. revealed tentative plans for a $12-20 million completely automated timber products plant just off Clark Mill Road. In conjunction with the diversified mill plans, Tomco President Amos Horner announced tentative plans to completely remove his present mill from Cascadia and convert the 230 acre site into a comprehensive recreational-vacation-retirement community with condominiums and trailer sites, including a golf course, swimming pools, tennis courts, community center and other facilities.
