The Memphis City Council approved another PILOT for Smucker Company. Wherever the council stops approving PILOTs, Memphis is going to dry up so fast that it's going to wish that it were the thriving metropolis of Detroit.

The jobs that these companies provide don't benefit the city, because very few of their employees live in or shop in Memphis. I guess the council just wants to say that they are bringing jobs to the area. Edited by LINKS2K

Maybe this is a replacement for Pinnacle?  What a mess that was and people knew Pinnacle would leave to Minneapolis.

Smucker and any other company that wants a PILOT from Memphis will continue to get one. The Pinnacle move was about cost cutting. There is no other way they give up their sweetheart deal that the city provided.
