American Green Successfully Completes Transaction for the Purchase of Nipton, CA, Ahead of Schedule - Seite 2

Dennis Benson, who has been a resident of the Ivanpah Valley since the late 1950's and worked in, lived in and been a part of Nipton as well as nearby Searchlight, NV and Baker, CA added, "Me and my family have seen people including family come and go, live and die here along with adventurers, prospectors, biologists, fans of outdoor sports, tourists from around the world and from all over the United States of America. My wife, Pam, and I have raised our boys in and around Nipton and we like it the way it is. Which is why we are very happy that it was American Green who has become our new neighbor. In our time with them we have found a company, made up of very real people, who aren't here to take Nipton from us, but to help us bring back the fun that the Ivanpah Valley has given so many people over the last hundred and twenty years. Hopefully other people will now get a chance to see why we love it her.

Since announcing the binding agreement to purchase Nipton last month, American Green has received over 1,000 inquiries on subjects ranging from expressing interest in brand associations with the town, employment opportunities, and retail space or marketing inquiries. It should be noted here that while some of the initial press the company received indicated the company's intent to immediately begin leasing land to cannabis growers or growing the herb, itself, no such activity is planned for the immediate future and could only happen with the full approval from the County of San Bernardino and the State of California, which it hopes to secure as some point in the future. As the Nipton Project develops in the future, the company continues to make plans to interact with county, state, and, some day, federal agencies to ensure it is acting well within all legal guidelines.

Nipton, established over 100 years ago, is one of many towns throughout our country that have seen better days -- maybe the mill or factory closed and took its production overseas, or perhaps the mineral mine went dry. It is American Green's vision to use Nipton, California as a revitalization model for other near-deserted small towns across America while retaining as much of the town's and region's natural charm, a directive that is paramount to American Green.
