BE IT RESOLVED, that it shall be the policy of the City of Jonesboro to require companies, prior to asking for the approval of the City Council of Jonesboro for Act 9 Bond Issues, to meet with a joint committee composed of the Industrial Committee of the Jonesboro City Council, the Industrial Committee of the Chamber of Commerce, and the Mayor of Jonesboro, for the purpose of determining if and for what amount an agreement for payments in lieu of taxed may be signed.

It is hoped that an agreement for payment in lieu of taxes shall normally be equal to normally assessed taxes and shall be received by the City of Jonesboro and dispersed to the various taxing bodies in proportion to the respective Millage levied, and that the Department of Finance and Administration shall administer the collection and disbursement of these funds.
