“Dear Navarre Village Council and Mayor Bob Benson,

On behalf of the residents of Brewster and Brewster Village Council, may I take this opportunity to offer my congratulations to Navarre and all of you in the Navarre Village government on landing the new Hendrickson USA manufacturing facility to the Village of Navarre. The vision that allowed Navarre to acquire the 165 acres of the old County Farm and the work and dedication that permitted Navarre to build the needed infrastructure that led Hendrickson USA to realize that Navarre was the place to locate must be recognized by all. We at Brewster Village Hall appreciate the time and effort of the many individuals that made this happen, and we thank you for bringing more jobs to southwestern Stark County.

Respectfully yours,
Mike Schwab
Brewster Mayor”
