[QUOTE="slick4591, post: 1350139, member: 16503"] Tax breaks have been a normal part of business for years. My favorite story is about Kraft Foods and McKinney, TX back in the 60's, I think. As I heard the story: Kraft wanted to put their plant in McKinney and was asking for a package deal on taxes and water. The council turned them down and basically told them they could pay just like anyone else. Kraft went to Garland and Garland prospered because of it. McKinney stayed the same small place until the old heads finally died off and they hired a city manager from Garland. I think the moral is to suck it up for a few years and you shall prosper.
