No, because Intel has consistently said that a SIP agreement would be required before its billions of dollars of investment in Washington County would be considered. Under the 2014 SIP agreement, Intel's land and buildings will continue to generate payments at a rate proportionate to those made by every other business in Washington County. Using prior Washington County SIP agreements as a model, any tax savings to Intel would come from its investment in chip-making equipment, which costs billions of dollars to create and can become obsolete after a few years. This approach would help continue Intel's level of investment in the community, continue job retention and the ripple effect of jobs at other businesses. This approach would also help continue property tax funding for county and city services, and continue state income tax funding for schools.
