Section 40-9B-6

Procedure for granting abatement.

(a) Any person who proposes to become a private user of industrial development property or of a major addition may apply to the governing body of any municipality, county, or public industrial authority, at or about the time that the private user is requesting inducement, for an abatement of all of the taxes allowed to be abated under Section 40-9B-4 with respect to such property. The application shall contain information that will permit the governing body to which it is submitted to make a reasonable cost/benefit analysis as to the proposed industrial development property and to determine the maximum exemption period for the abatement of noneducational ad valorem taxes.

(b) The abatements granted by the governing body shall be embodied in an agreement, which may be the same as the inducement, between the governing body and the private user, setting forth:

(1) The estimated amount of each abatement and the maximum exemption period.

(2) Good faith projections by the private user of: The amount to be invested; the number of individuals to be employed, initially and in the succeeding three years; and the payroll.

(c) The private user shall file with the Department of Revenue within 90 days after the granting of the abatements a copy of the agreement required by subsection (b), the contents of which the department shall use solely for its statistical and recordkeeping activities but shall otherwise keep confidential unless consented to in writing by the private user.

(Acts 1992, No. 92-599, p. 1239, §6; Act 2001-503, p. 886, §123.)
