From the Northwest Indiana Times:
An Indiana Avenue woodworking plant was one of several businesses in the city to be granted an annual renewal of its tax abatement.
D & L Wood Products, 615 N. Indiana Ave., won praise from city officials for its performance.
The company, in its first year of a 10-year abatement, "is continuing to grow and employ more people," said Mark Schweitzer, an at-large city councilman and a member of a recommending committee on tax abatements.
...
The City Council approved renewal of tax abatements for a total 30 businesses, including D & L Properties, owner of D & L Wood Products, based on the recommendation of the council's Human Resources and Economic Development Committee.
Many of those approved were more than halfway through the 10-year period of abatement, including four businesses in the final year, after which full property taxes are paid.
Nagel Enterprise was granted a first-time 10-year abatement for an approximately $900,000 building proposed at 11085 Virginia St., in the Crown East commercial/industrial complex.
The company's industrial engine service business currently is relocating from a building on Summit Street and wishes to remain in Crown Point, a lawyer for the business said.
