Tax abatements lure 100 jobs here in Batavia
Clermont County commissioners approved Rural Job and Enterprise Zone agreements boosting Union and Miami townships with 75 percent real estate and personal property tax abatements for five years through 1993. Lathe and Service Division of LeBlond Machine Tool Co will relocate to Union Township with Tipton Associates owning the site and a $812000 facility plan. The move adds 25 jobs and about $1 million in county payroll. Falcon Fabricators Inc will bring 40-50 jobs to Cherry Grove with $650000 in new construction and $900000 in payroll. RS/Control Works Inc plans 15 employees at Wards Corner Rd as part of another abatement.
