PLYMOUTH – The Plymouth Common Council took the first step towards a tax abatement for the expansion of a 40-plus-year
Plymouth business.
AK Industries has begun the process of adding new equipment and a new product to their line, projected for December of this year, that will also add at least six new jobs. The Council voted to declare “…certain real estate to be within an economic revitalization area” in order to begin that process.
General Manager James Connelly brought a visual aid for the Council in the form of a small-scale model of the new product the equipment will produce.
AK Industries has been in operation in Plymouth since 1981 and currently employs 206 people. The new equipment will come at a purchase price of $1.2 million.
