Of the $42.9 million county assistance package, $26.5 million is tied to two tax credits the developers would have been eligible to receive once the project was complete. Instead of taking the tax credits later and paying lower property taxes, the developers agreed to pay the full amount of property taxes. The difference — $26.5 million — would be given to the developers up front. The county estimated it would take 10 to 12 years for the property to generate $26.5 million in property taxes.
