County approves Forest Grove Solar tax deal

Body

HENDERSON COUNTY–Henderson County Commissioners’ Court voted Dec. 13 to enter into a tax abatement agreement with a company that plans to construct a solar electric facility between Athens and Eustace.
The agreement only affects county-related taxes, said County Judge Wade McKinney. The agreement between the county and Forest Grove Solar, LLC, deals with the solar facility that lies within the 7,200-acre Forest Grove Reinvestment Zone, which the court voted to create in August.
