Liebherr Aerospace is seeking a 12-year tax break for a 35,000-square-foot expansion of its campus.
The $9.9 million investment at 1465A Woodland Drive is expected to create 24 new jobs within two years of completion - with the average wage expected to exceed 150 percent of state minimum wage. The expansion will accommodate needed capacity for growing heat exchange recoring and land gear overhaul business.
The IFT would be for 50 percent of taxes.
In terms of meeting the public interest, the project is expected to increase the tax base, provide new employment and finance public infrastructure.
The city only grants tax breaks on real property. About $9 million of the investment in real property. Personal property is not eligible for a tax abatement in the city.
The city held a public hearing on the tax abatement at Monday's council meeting. There were no comments.
City council is expected to take action the request in July.
The city also granted Liebherr a tax break in 2016.

This is outstanding news for the Saline Community!
Best burger goes to Droptop pizza. No doubt about it . Dan’s is not what it used to be and the food is not award worthy. Need some new judges.
It's a voting thing, not a judging thing.
Dan's burger has never treated me wrong. And I like the DropTop burger too.I would never put down someone else's burger, though. I might say someone else has a better one.
Like, I like the Jet's Pizza. But to me, that's a DropTop prize.
These awards are voted by the PEOPLE...not a committee of judges. The people of Saline and Saline area voted for these businesses. I have never had a bad meal at Dan's Downtown Tavern and if something wasn't right I know that it would be corrected. Plus I have had Drop Tops pizza and I found it to be quite good.
No Data center
While I have some empathy for the family I would bet the proverbial farm that their ancestors would not like it to be rezoned. Disappearing farm land is a national problem not just local.
Agreed. It’s their land and can do as they wish but it’s just a bummer
