I read an article about Warsaw's EV deal and want to share it here.
In an exciting move for Kosciusko County, electric vehicle startup Slate Auto is looking to turn the old R.R. Donnelley plant into a new factory.
The company is promising more than $300 million in investment and a huge boost of nearly 1,700 jobs.
County officials are thrilled about the new employment opportunities and the chance to diversify the local economy, which has heavily relied on orthopedics and agriculture.
However, some officials have big questions. They're worried about the lack of transparency on tax credits from the state and whether the company's electric trucks will be a hit in the market. The final decision on a 10-year property tax break is coming up in June, but for now, the county council has given it preliminary approval.
What do you guys think about this?
