Abatement allows increased property tax liability resulting from new development to be phased in over a period of years. Utility spokesman Chris Tryba said the Hoosier Energy board has not yet approved the project, which he said is contingent upon the tax abatement and the vacation of South Tech Park Boulevard. The Bloomington City Council would have the final vote on both issues. Tryba said the proposal calls for construction of a three-story, 80,000-square-foot building on approximately 13.5 acres now owned by the Public Investment
Corp. of Bloomington at the northeast corner of the intersection of Ind. 37 and Tapp Road.

New property taxes on the site would be phased in over a period of 10 years, according to the company’s application to the EDC.
