What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The West Lafayette City Council discussed the revenue-sharing agreement for the upcoming $4 billion SK Hynix semiconductor facility in Indiana. Mayor Erin Easter announced that the tax revenue share was negotiated up to 20%, which will be split among Tippecanoe County, the Tippecanoe School Corporation, and West Lafayette. The facility is designated an Innovation Development District (IDD), which requires a minimum of 12% of tax revenue to be distributed locally. Councilor David Sanders criticized the IDD status, stating he believes they are detrimental to Indiana.
