City tax abatement report critiques raise debate
Lawrence activists question the tax abatement policy after a Public Incentives Review Committee report. Two members urge reduced abatements for local firms while another proposes in house economic planning. Officials cite mixed job and investment results from E E Specialties and Sauer Danfoss amid recent economic downturn. The City Commission will discuss the matter at 6 35 p m in City Hall.
