Summary
Council adopted third-reading ordinances to grant special source credits to Gilstar Metz Street LLC (Project Cherry) and to amend a joint industrial/business park agreement with Anderson County to enlarge the park and add parcels.
Greenville County Council adopted two third-reading ordinances on Feb. 3 focused on economic development.
Councilor Collins moved the adoption of a special source credit agreement with Gilstar Metz Street LLC (formerly Project Cherry), authorizing special source credits against payments in lieu of taxes tied to qualifying infrastructure investment. The motion was adopted by voice vote; the clerk announced "The ayes have it."
Council also approved an amendment to a joint county industrial and business park agreement with Anderson County to enlarge the park and add certain parcels in Anderson County. That ordinance likewise passed at third reading by voice vote.
The ordinances were presented as tools to encourage investment and to support regional economic development. No detailed vote tallies were recorded in the transcript for those two third-reading approvals; the clerk recorded voice votes that adopted the measures.
Both items were presented by Councilor Collins and had limited floor discussion before adoption.
