Board of County Commissioners- Informal Meeting · 2026-04-14 · agenda_item

The Board of County Commissioners is reviewing a proposed economic incentive program. This program is planned to offer Ad Valorem Tax Exemptions, Job Growth Investment Grants, and Impact Fee Mitigations to businesses that meet certain job creation and wage requirements. The program is currently under review, with potential for adoption. If approved, this could lead to new construction and development projects. These projects would likely involve site preparation, utility work, building construction, and related trades. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early to understand the program's details and potential benefits as plans are finalized.
