📰 News we're reading
• Hilliard reports Amazon tax breaks, jobs above targets (cleveland.com) — Hilliard’s latest incentive review shows Amazon-related data centers far exceeding promised job and payroll targets while receiving about $8.37 million in 2025 property-tax abatements. City reports detail hundreds of new jobs, tens of millions in payroll, and council approval to continue the deals, while noting the figures don’t fully answer whether taxpayers are getting the best long-term value.
