The Haines Borough Assembly is returning to the idea of establishing a property tax waiver program to spur local economic development.
The assembly voted in 2014 to establish an economic incentive program after it rejected specific property tax waivers for the Haines Brewing Company’s purchase of roughly 20,000 square feet of Main Street property.
The idea was the program would apply broadly and relieve the borough of negotiating incentives with businesses on an individual basis.
