City commissioners weigh a 10-year, 55 percent tax abatement to support a 55 plant expansion at East Hills Business Park by API Park. The action aims to spur growth while evaluating long term fiscal impact and job creation.
The Public Incentives Review Committee gave a strong recommendation for a tax abatement covering about 4.5 million dollars for building expansion. The project would create 31 new jobs, all paying above the city living wage of 10.73 dollars per hour plus benefits and above the statewide average for similar roles. The company may choose to expand in New Jersey instead, awaiting Lawrence’s incentive offer to determine the site.
City commission agenda includes recognizing March 6 as Friends of the Park Day, approving Feb 20 minutes, receiving minutes from boards, approving claims and licenses, and appointing recommendations. Purchases total 40000 for fire uniform items. second readings on four ordinances including franchise fee adjustments for Valley Electric and AT&T Kansas, two T-Mobile SUPs, and a special use permit.
