Asurion's multi-million dollar incentive package

The Tennessean reported this morning that Metro Nashville will give cell phone Asurion a $2.4 million cash grant as part of the company's agreement to stay in Davidson County and create up to 600 new jobs. The grant includes $500 per new job created plus $2.1 million over three years for job training, employee relocation and real estate costs. The money, which must be approved by Metro Council, marks the first major city-backed incentive package since then Mayor Phil Bredesen lured Dell computers to the area in 1999. In addition to the city dollars, the state will pony up $10 million to the company for job training and equipment and occupancy costs.
