Occupants to be relocated as Tyson expands

Tyson will be leasing over three acres of property adjacent to its Storm Lake pork plant, with plans to create an additional parking area that company officials say is sorely needed.

The property, now known as Paradise Park, is occupied by a mobile home park. The owner of the park, Storm Lake company Sichanh Incorporated, has agreed to attempt to relocate the people who live there, some of whom are Tyson workers.

Tyson will also monitor that housing situation, to ensure the transition process goes smoothly, according to Tyson spokesman Gary Mickelson.
