City Council unanimously approved a Recapture Enhanced Value Grant up to $3.5 million for code-named Project Willow.
The recipient of the property tax refund is a locally established regional food retailer that wishes to expand its distribution support operations to accommodate continued growth to serve customers in the Southeastern U.S., according to documents filed by the city Office of Economic Development.
The company proposing Project Willow is not named in the ordinance, but details of the project are similar to a new warehouse being considered by Lakeland-based Publix Super Markets Inc. at its distribution center in West Jacksonville.
