By TONY BRITT [email protected]

Plum Creek representatives host- ed a stakeholder meeting Tuesday morning and unveiled a new logo and name for the RACEC/Catalyst site. The new name: The North Florida Intermodal Park. Plum Creek representatives gave out free shirts are part of the cam- paign to spread the word about the new title. “The project now has an iden- tity,” said Allison Megrath, a Plum Creek real estate manager. “Up until this point the project had either been referred to as the Plum Creek property, Inland Port, the Catalyst site and its had a num- ber of different names. Collectively we want to give the project one name and an identity where when people see the logo they know we’re taking about the 2,622-acre industrial project on the southside of U.S. Highway 90 on the eastside of town.” The stakeholder meeting took place at the Florida Gateway College Wilson S.
