Shovel Ready,
means that the
property has
utilities to the
site, proper
zoning,
easements and
transportation
access. It is
under control of
a development
organization and
the price is
established and
is known.
It's important to have "shovel ready" sites because it tells a corporate site selector that there's a good chance that the municipality is business friendly, well-run and that the required resources will be in place. Your project can proceed more quickly, with lower risk and better defined costs.
