Andy's $4M tax break first to include Springfield sales tax exemption
Tax subsidies, especially those that freeze property taxes, are a relatively common tool used to spur investment in Springfield and across Missouri. But a review by the News-Leader shows the incentive package approved by Springfield City Council for Andy's Frozen Custard new headquarters campus in northeast Springfield abates more tax dollars than previous projects and is the first time Queen City sales taxes have been cut for such a project. The Springfield-based company asked council to approve the issuance of $32 million in Chapter 100 Industrial Development Revenue Bonds to build a new campus and expand beyond its current corporate headquarters downtown. This means the city will take ownership of the project temporarily, allowing Andy's to use the city's tax-exempt status to partially abate property taxes on the improvements for the length of the 25-year agreement. The stated purpose of the incentives is to spur construction of more than 43,000 square-feet of office space spread among three buildings and a 9,600-square-foot industrial warehouse all on a 10-acre plot of land on the northeast corner of LeCompte Road and Division Street. Unlike past projects, this was the first time the city signed off on a sales tax exemption on construction materials.
