The deal authorizes a 20-year Recapture Enhanced Value (REV) Grant capped at $5,500,000, plus a headquarters retention grant not to exceed $6,500,000 payable in equal annual disbursements of $1,300,000 over five years — and expressly waives the Public Investment Policy to authorize the headquarters grant. Requires 2-reading passage per Council Rule 3.305. Watch for public participation when it returns.
