1. Primary Jobs are those where the revenue
generated to pay the employees is generated from outside the economic region.
Businesses developing intellectual property into a commercial product may
apply for Sales & Use or Personal Property Tax abatements with 10 full
time employees.
2. The average hourly wage that is paid by the business is at least 100 percent
of the average statewide hourly wage or the average countywide hourly wage,
which ever is less, as established by the Department of Employment, Training
and Rehabilitation. Additionally, the business will provide a health insurance
plan for all employees that includes an option for dependents of the employees.
3. Letters of Acknowledgment can be obtained by the governing body after evaluating
whether the abatement would be beneficial to the economic development of the
community.
