1024 Scott Reed, Vice President of operations commented he had several conversations with Councilwoman Perry. He reported that as of February 3, 2012 they had 101 full time employees and up to 10 temporary employees. He said that in 2008 and 2009 they had felt the strains of the economic downturn but came through that and are now looking to expand. Nancy Caldwell asked where the people they are looking to hire to come from and Scoot Reed answered they have an open door policy in the taking of applications. Currently 99 out of 101 are within 25 miles of Mooresville. Jeff Scalf asked about the matrix. Councilman Langley explained the matrix has five or so different factors with points to be erne V!E the total points equals the years of abatement. PacMoore had scored, po' 20 points equals ten years and with a lesser number of employees they still would score a 22 and still qualify for a ten year abatement. Jeff Scalf said he would like to request that in the future the number of employees on the SB-1 have to be the number on the CF-1. He wants the companies to also advertise in the Mooresville Decatur Times and in the Martinsville Reporter and to have a hiring department in house to take applications and do interviews. Mr. Scalf said he thought to turn this request for tax abatement would be an appropriate message to the industries that they have to be in compliance. Vice President Mathis commented that a point of interest was PacMoore last year taxes paid were $37,801.34 and will increase as the years go on coming in to the Town of Mooresville and if they hadn't build on that acreage the taxes coming in to the Town of Mooresville would have been$675.00.
