Notes: The subsidy package for Burns & McDonnell's headquarters expansion includes local and state incentives. Kansas City provided $41.9 million over 23 years from Tax Increment Financing (including utility tax revenue and half of the earnings tax revenue in the district); $41.8 million over 25 years from Chapter 100 bond financing, equal to a property tax abatement; and $3 million in sales tax exemptions on building materials. The company also was approved for about $8.5 million from the state's Missouri Works program. The job figure represents new jobs; the investment figure is the project's estimated construction cost.
