Construction on a new Genentech Inc. research laboratory in Dixon, about 10 miles from the company's expanding Vacaville manufacturing campus, could start within three weeks.
The 140,000-square-foot building will provide space for about 160 employees, mostly technicians and research scientists. Economic development leaders hope the company's latest growth plan will help attract more biotechnology business to Dixon.
