T-Mobile to Receive Tax Credits

Gov. Matt Blunt announced today new state tax credits for T-Mobile in Springfield.
The Missouri Department of Economic Development approved the credits today, and Blunt said it would pave the way for new jobs in Springfield.
“T-Mobile has been an excellent addition to Springfield’s business community and is highly regarded by its exceptional employees," Blunt said in a statement.

The Blunt administration has reserved credits for a nine-year benefit period in the amount of $2.9 million dollars based on the company’s projection of the creation of 650 new jobs at an average wage of $18,720 and new investment of $17.5 million at 2645 N. Airport Plaza, Springfield.

T-Mobile has previously been approved for $1.48 million in new jobs training incentives.

The business operations at the facility will be a customer call center.
