AB4,1,2 1An Act to amend 560.703 (1) (a) of the statutes; relating to: increasing the
2amount of the credits under the economic development tax credit program.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) may allocate tax
credits to certain businesses under the economic development tax credit program.
The economic development tax credit program consolidates several economic
development-related tax credit programs and provides that the total amount of
credits allocated under the consolidated program may not exceed the sum of the tax
credits remaining under the other programs. This bill increases the total amount of
credits that Commerce may allocate under the economic development tax credit
program by $25,000,000.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
