SPRINGDALE -- City leaders say they are ready for new Tyson Foods executives -- no matter how many move to Springdale.It's still a boon to the economy to create 1,000 jobs in the area, they said, whether they transfer from other Tyson locations or are hired new to replace those who didn't.In October, Tyson Foods said it was recalling about 1,000 of its executives to work at its headquarters in Springdale. Only about 200 workers -- or about 20% in total -- have said they'll move to Springdale, according to a Thursday report in the Wall Street Journal.
