Rezoning request for marketer OK'd

An investment of up to $2 million can proceed at a Fort Wayne marketing firm looking to be closer to the Vera Bradley distribution center.

Under a proposed deal, Britton would transfer into an office and warehouse facility after it is built on the south side of Lafayette Center Road, south of General Motors Co.’s Allen County truck plant.
