<br />
<br />VI. Tax Abatement for Personal Property; Creation of Jobs:
<br />
<br />The City recognizes a significant difference in the valuation of real property and
<br />personal property. Because of depreciation schedules, often the abatement of personal property
<br />is basically a tax exemption. For this reason, the abatement schedule for personal property
<br />versus real property is significantly different. If personal property should become obsolete and
<br />be replaced while under an abatement agreement, the replacement personal property is not
<br />eligible for abatement.
<br />
<br />a) To be eligible for any tax abatement on Personal Property, there must be a minimum
<br />capital investment of $250,000 in Personal Property and at least ten (10) new Jobs added to the
<br />Employer's labor force.
<br />
<br />b) When an abatement percentage has been agreed upon it shall be granted for years one
<br />(1) through three (3); thereafter, there will be a 20% reduction in the original amount abated
<br />beginning with year four (4) and a similar reduction of 20% in each of the next three years until
<br />100% of the Real Property valuation is added to the tax rolls.
