Manteca taxpayers are spending $3.8 million to buy 10 acres of high profile, ready-to-develop land along Daniels Street just east of Fishback Road that had been bought by Lowe’s for a home improvement center.If all goes well, San Joaquin County will opt to switch that site to build a satellite county center for land Manteca set aside earlier along Milo Candini Drive across from the Big League Dreams sports complex.County officials have $660,000 set aide to do preliminary work for development plans they hope to tackle in the next several years. The preliminary vision calls for two buildings covering 150,000 square feet or roughly the same size of the 145,000-square-foot Lowe’s that had been proposed for the site.The plan calls to locate satellite offices for human services, health services including a clinic, child support payments, agricultural commissioner, assessor, and tax collector to serve residents in the fast growing South County communities of Manteca, Lathrop, Ripon, Tracy, and Escalon. It could create as many as 400 jobs.
