re: FOIA Request: Who did Joe Jaeger call at the Governor’s office?

Without the tax breaks there is no project

With no project there’s no need for a developer

You don’t think by having those tax breaks in place didn’t benefit Jaeger?

That wasn’t your question. This was:

So in return he gets millions of dollars in tax incentives to build a 1200 room hotel that’s not needed?

The answer to your first question is no, he doesn’t get millions of dollars in tax incentives. The owner does, and he’s not the owner.

Regarding your second, different question, do you know how projects of that scope are financed? Are you aware of the myriad ways state and federal governments incentivize development through tax programs?

If you don’t, then your questions reflect your ignorance. If you do, then your problems are with the system, not Jaeger.
