The latest testament to enduring incentive madness during a murder spike:
Flashcube Building owner pops incentive question; PIEA says 'We'll do 100 percent' - Kansas City Business Journal
The Planned Industrial Expansion Authority on Thursday approved a 25-year property tax abatement for the $50 million conversion of the so-called "Flashcube Building" into 181 apartments. Worcester Investments has a contract to buy the long-vacant office building at 720 Main St. for $5.7 million.
TIF's, tax credits and who knows what else. Thank God that Worcester Investments doesn't have to put any of their skin in the game.
