InnovAsian/Nichirei Jonesboro Facility Industrial Development Revenue Bonds

Jonesboro

Description

The committee recommended a bond ordinance enabling up to $180 million in conduit industrial revenue bonds for a new food processing facility, paired with a PILOT tax abatement at 35% of normal property taxes. A public hearing is set for May 19 before the council's final vote.

Impact summary

Brings a major industrial investment of up to $180 million and a 175,000-square-foot facility to Jonesboro, though the tax abatement limits the property tax revenue it will generate.
