New, $30 million investment in Oconee

Richard Blackwell uses the word “exciting” to talk about what’s being developed at the Hartwell Village project in eastern Oconee County.  The latest announcement, involving former Clemson alumni and former football players, is a 116-unit condominium project that will face Lake Hartwell next to New Spring Church.  According to Blackwell, director of county Economic Development, it’s a $30 million investment for tax purposes that is in addition to the stores and other commercial development that have previously been announced.
