Globe: O'Sullivan plant may close as soon as next month

It appears that O'Sullivan Industries will close its Lamar plant next month, according to an article in today's Joplin Globe.

Lynn Calton, Lamar city administrator, said the city needs to find out in the next couple of weeks when the plant will close because O’Sullivan is still hooked up to city-run utilities. Calton said his understanding is that the plant will close by the end of July.
