Building

If you or a client is looking for 70,000+ sq. ft. of Class A manufacturing space, then the Millstone facility at the Henderson Riverport is just what you’ve been looking for.  The facility offers easy access to road, river and rail along with a nearby general aviation airport.  All of this and Kenergy serves the building with some of the nation’s lowest electricity rates.

Sites

Northwest Kentucky has numerous shovel-ready sites.  This issue spotlights the 4-Star Regional Industrial Park.  This nearly 1000-acre industrial park is located adjacent to the Breathitt Parkway (part of the I-69 corridor) and offers abundant utilities in place.

Present tenants and neighbors include Columbia Sportswear Distribution Center, KB Alloys,  Big Rivers Electric, and Alcan.  You can find more information on 4-Star as well as our other available sites at our website

Parkways soon to be FREEways

Effective November 22nd, the tolls are coming off of the Audubon and Natcher Parkways.  Governor Ernie Fletcher made the announcement on September 28.  The November 22nd date is approximately seven months ahead of the planned date. According to Fletcher, “By removing the tolls we are clearing a path for new jobs and economic opportunities throughout this entire region.”   The removal of these tolls makes Northwest Kentucky a toll-drive!

New Incentive Program

The newest incentive program is the Kentucky Enterprise Initiative Act (KEIA or “key-a” in economic development speak).  This program allows a company to receive a refund of sales and use taxes paid for construction materials and building fixtures and for equipment used in research and development.  It requires a minimum investment of $500,000.  This program can be used in conjunction with other incentive programs. 

Remember, all of Kentucky’s incentive programs require that you receive approval BEFORE you begin your project to be eligible.  Contact us today to discuss how we can customize an incentive program for you.

Service after the sell

At Northwest Kentucky, we believe economic development is a relationship and that relationship doesn’t end after the sell.  We have an aggressive and robust existing business program focused on helping to Retain, Expand, and Promote existing companies.  You can check out our existing business program at our website.
