Johnstown council approves incentives for Kroger

JOHNSTOWN — With just a single question asked, the Johnstown Town Council approved an incentive agreement with the Kroger Co. (NYSE: KR) Monday night to establish an ecommerce fulfillment center in the community.

Councilmember Vanessa Dominguez asked whether the operation might provide a larger variety of foods suitable for people with food allergy issues. The answer: yes, over time.

The issue before the council was whether to extend a personal property tax exemption and a rebate of building permit fees to Kroger if it establishes the fulfillment center by mid-year 2023 and hires at least 100 people by June 30, 2024.
