State officials have closed on northeast Hall County property that will be the home of the new Georgia Poultry Laboratory Network headquarters. As part of an agreement last year, the Gainesville-Hall County Development Authority was required to prepare the site for construction before the state would close on the property. Paul L. Melvin, spokesman for the State Properties Commission, said that once closing was completed, “the contractor is required to be on site within 10 calendar days.”
