Ypsi: Business

The Detroit Free Press reports that Karen and Eric Maurer – landlords for Ann Arbor SPARK’s Ypsilanti business incubator – takes issue with a proposal by Gov. Rick Snyder to eliminate historic district and brownfield tax credits. The Maurers used both to renovate the historic building now occupied by SPARK, a local economic development agency that Snyder co-founded. Mike Finney, SPARK’s former CEO who Snyder tapped to lead the Michigan Economic Development Corp., tells the Freep that incentives will still exist in some form to help projects like the ones undertaken by the Maurers.
