Costco and Freedom Farm development incentive
Summary
A 10-year, $21.5 million contribution agreement would help land Costco as the anchor of a 220-acre master-planned development near the mall. Supporters say it means 600 jobs, millions for schools, and keeping local shopping dollars home instead of on I-24 to Nashville.

Impact analysis
$21.5 million over ten years, but payments only come after Costco remits the matching sales tax — projected $4.57 million a year for schools.
Shoppers, job seekers, schools, and the local tax base — plus commuters who'd skip the Nashville drive.
