King’s Hawaiian’s expansion in Oakwood also could illustrate the need for growth in another way — roads leading to the plant. Following last week’s announcement the California-based bakery could add another 400 jobs to its Oakwood operation, Oakwood City Manager Stan Brown said he plans to pursue grants that would help the South Hall city improve infrastructure in the area. Brown said possibilities lie with the Appalachian Regional Commission and the Georgia Department of Community Affairs’ employment incentive program.
