Narrative
The township provided $1.3 million in infrastructure reimbursements to three companies developing a Supercenter, including THF Realty. The city is paying back the developers through a 20-year loan. Payments for the first ten years were financed by a tax abatement through the Remedial Action Plan program. During the second ten years, the township, municipalities, and school district will each pay a percentage of the taxes they receive towards the debt.
