This isn't news at all. Cities have been doing this for at least 15 years. You give a company a tax holiday for agreeing to build or locate to your city.

Walmart has been doing this for probably longer. They get a tax holiday for say 10 years from local government. At the end, when the government says "OK, now you have to start paying taxes" they either shut their doors or move their store right outside the city limits. This has been happening all over Kansas in small towns for a while now.
