13 Cuno v. DaimlerChrysler Project and Incentives In 1998, DaimlerChrysler entered into an agreement with the City of Toledo to construct a new vehicle assembly plant near the company s existing facility. $1.2 billion capital investment and several thousand jobs. Ten-year 100% property tax exemption. 13.5% investment tax credit against corporate franchise taxes. Source: Case , U.S. Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit, 9/2/04 25 Cuno v. DaimlerChrysler Investment Tax Credits The distinction between a subsidy and a tax credit, in the constitutional sense, results from the fact that the tax credit involves state regulation of interstate commerce through its power to tax. We conclude that Ohio s investment tax credit cannot be upheld under the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution. Source: Case , U.S. Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit, 9/2/04 26
14 Cuno v. DaimlerChrysler Property Tax Exemptions The conditions imposed on the receipt of the Ohio property tax exemption are minor collateral requirements and are directly linked to the use of the exempted personal property. Unlike an investment tax credit that reduces preexisting income tax liability, the personal property tax exemption does not reduce any existing property tax liability. If universally applied, the new property would escape tax liability irrespective of location. We hold that the Ohio personal property tax exemption does not violate the dormant Commerce Clause. Source: Case , U.S. Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit, 9/2/04 27 Cuno v. DaimlerChrysler Status Defendants petitioned the Sixth Circuit Court for a rehearing. Denied January 18, Pending hearing by U.S. Supreme Court. 28
15 Cuno v. DaimlerChrysler Response to Sixth Circuit Court Decision National Governors Association 10/7/04 letter to Senate supporting legislation to clarify that state incentives are allowed: These statutes are vital tools in promoting economic growth and fostering new business throughout the United States. U.S. Congress introduced Jobs Investment Act of 2004, H.R and S. 2881, 108th Congress (2004). No action taken. U.S. Congress introduced Economic Development Act of 2005, H.R and S (filed 5/18/05). 29 H.R and S (2005) Congress hereby exercises its power under Article I, Section 8, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution to regulate commerce among the several States by authorizing any State to provide to any person for economic development purposes tax incentives that otherwise would be the cause or source of discrimination against interstate commerce under the Commerce clause of the United States Constitution, except as otherwise provided by law. 30
16 Are tax incentives abused? Audience Comments 31 Do incentives really matter in site selections? Audience Comments 32
17 What do state economic development executives say about incentives? 33 State Economic Development Executives We were very aggressive in putting incentives on the table at the state and local levels Our belief was that we must make sure we help our existing industries expand in the state. Neal Wade, Director, Alabama Development Office A major indicator of a state's business climate is its tax structure. Arkansas maintains a fair and probusiness tax system. Arkansas Department of Economic Development 34
18 State Economic Development Executives Florida offers bottom-line advantages for long-term profitability. Florida's stable and highly favorable tax climate provides advantages that make a Florida location profitable for every type of business. Enterprise Florida Georgia provides a wide variety of statutory and negotiated incentives for eligible projects. As an active and interested business partner, Georgia will work with companies to provide the most attractive incentive packages, commensurate with project needs and resource availability. Georgia Economic Development 35 State Economic Development Executives Local Kentucky sales taxes are taboo. Property taxes are among the lowest in the nation And local jurisdictions may offer inventory tax reduction or exemption options. Kentucky Cabinet of Economic Development To be competitive, Louisiana has to give incentives in the most successful states the brunt of taxes isn't paid by business and industry. Site selection consultants look at a variety of things, including the government's willingness to spread the burden of taxation. Mike Olivier, Secretary of Louisiana Economic Development 36
19 State Economic Development Executives Doing business in other states can be very taxing, but Mississippi's excellent business climate means its taxes are lower than other states' levels Incentives are a major factor in Mississippi's reputation as one of the best business climates in the United States. Mississippi Development Authority Like it or not, incentives are a significant part of the competitive landscape. We would be happy to eliminate incentives as a point of competition, but we cannot do that. And so our point is to be prepared when it makes sense to compete with incentives. Jim Fain, North Carolina Secretary of Commerce 37 State Economic Development Executives South Carolina has a reputation as a superior business location, largely due to an exceptional economic climate that helps companies hold down operating costs and increase their return on investment. In addition, South Carolina s performance-based tax incentives reward companies for job creation and investment. South Carolina Department of Commerce The governor likes to say that a business relocation decision should not be based on incentives, but incentives are deal-closers. We have a complement of incentives that allows us to be competitive in almost every opportunity. Matthew Kisber, Commissioner, TN Dept of Economic & Community Development 38
20 State Economic Development Executives Incentives are Virginia's investment in her economic future and a business decision for both the Commonwealth and the company. Virginia Economic Development Partnership West Virginia s aggressive program of incentives, in the form of tax credits and financing programs, fund the economic development projects West Virginians need for a brighter future. West Virginia Economic Development 39 SUMMARY Correlation between tax burden and economic development. Tax incentives are necessary to make tax structures more competitive. Tax incentives are a major factor in site selection. 40
