A unanimous Chillicothe city council approves a request to issue up to $16.5 million dollars in industrial revenue bonds.
That's part of the economic incentives that T&R Soil Service will use to build a fertilizer plant in the city's industrial park on Mitchell Avenue south of the Liberty Utilities building.
The incentives that were approved during a special meeting on Wednesday (October 28) includes an office and a production facility for dry fertilizer and a crop protection and liquid fertilizer blending operation.
The ordinance that was approved says the city will own the plant and will lease it to T&R Soil Service.
The city will also grant an undisclosed amount in tax abatements.
The ordinance does not give a total value of the project or how many jobs will be created.
