The investment will include the lease of approximately 450,000 square feet of space along with the purchase of equipment and leasehold improvements.

“Wayne County has come a long way in the past few years, and the project being proposed by Magna is yet another example of the rapid progress we are making in rebuilding our community through economic development,” said Warren C.
