1973, 70 employees and adding 50.

That’s almost 100 percent increase in workforce.

Unusual for a company to have the same number of employees for so long. Usually you either boom or bust, no?

Interesting.

They didn’t do it to let you see the world :)

I’m sure you offered a LOT in return.

Seeing the world was a HUGE PERK though!!

I am envious in a good way. IS that possible? :)

Tool and die investment. Just what you would expect for ramping up industrial production.

“And ####ing is in Austria.”

I’ve seen pictures of that sign.
If I remember correctly the u had the umlaut.
Would that be pronounced Fuh or Foo?
Just curious.

"If approved, the abatement would save the company $366,153 in equipment taxes and $865,000 in real estate taxes over 10 years."

Winning or corporate welfare? Looks like half way decent jobs but at the cost of shifting the tax burden. I hope the taxes generated from the increased payroll would offset the give away.

It’s a shame that even on a conservative site, lowering taxes is seen as welfare.

My beef with lowering taxes in this manner is that such economic development tax abatement plans are targeted, not every business or property owner gets treated the same.
