[quote BorntoFish01][quote curt69]They are going to build a Cabelas in Ammon . Whats your thoughts . I think they should build it closer to the freeway. I bet Ammon is giving them some big tax breaks and that's why they are building there .[/quote]
So true on the tax breaks........money talks, more than the market, location, etc. etc. I saw this as the case in Reno where negotiations dragged on over a year because the city wasn't willing to pay the price. Apparently they eventually folded under the pressure from Cabelas and the store was built. Milwaukee, WI. on the other hand stuck to their guns unwilling to give the store their ridiculous tax breaks and other considerations. Eventually Cabelas worked out an agreement with the town of Germantown which is I think about 25 miles from Milwaukee.[/quote]
Reno folded under the pressure? I would think Reno would welcome the employment and future revenue.
I know the one here in Lehi was under negotiation which I am sure all new locations do. And they did the Tax exempt for a period of time. But it did offer a lot of jobs before and after it opened. So the state gets those taxes from the people. Just how I looked at it.
