FALCONER Local officials are awaiting word on whether year-long efforts to keep a longtime company in Chautauqua County pay off.
Mark Geise, chief executive officer of the Chautauqua County Industrial Development Agency, confirmed Monday that Truck-Lite has been looking at possibly relocating about 100 employees from its longtime home on East Elmwood Avenue in Falconer. It is believed the manufacturer of truck and trailer safety lighting is viewing three potential options: remain in Chautauqua County at a new, more economically feasible location; move to a new site to be constructed over the state line in Warren County; or move operations to the Erie, Pa., region.
