“And It’s pretty state of the art. There is not another industrial building like it here in the city of East Bethel. It is going to be a great addition to the community, as they intend on expanding employees, and they are a more metropolitan company,” he says. Their previous location has been acquired by Matt’s Plumbing Solutions, a commercial plumbing company relocating to East Bethel to expand its operations, bringing further employment opportunities to the city. Additionally, Nexus Family Healing, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, has reopened a youth psychiatric treatment facility in East Bethel, which was previously closed. The company has agreed to a PILOT (payment in lieu if taxes) program that involves an annual payment to the city instead of a tax payment. “The city now has some additional revenues coming in, while assisting them in reopening and maintaining the facility,” Berg reports.“So, there are now additional jobs as well as taxable goods being purchased for the ongoing care of those clients at the treatment center.” 116 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 05, ISSUE 07
