VermalandBy Catherine Reagor, The Republic | azcentral.com

Arizona landowner Vermaland has offered Tesla Motors Inc. a free 1,000-acre site in Eloy to build its $4 billion battery factory.

Vermaland CEO Kuldip Verma told The Arizona Republic Tuesday afternoon he had contacted the Greater Phoenix Economic Council in late February offering the site Pinal County at no charge. He said he also offered a 666-acre site in Gila Bend at a “greatly discounted rate.”

“Then GPEC told us Tesla was already far along in its Arizona site selection, so we contacted Tesla directly in early March and offered the two sites,” Verma said.

“We feel the (Tesla) project will be monumental to accelerating the growth of Phoenix and all the economic development groups and businesses should do everything they can to ensure the project moves to Phoenix.”
