The new law includes $500 million in capital funding to be spent over a 10-year period, $25 million each year for 10 years for the Life Sciences Investment Fund and $25 million annually for 10 years in tax incentives to be awarded to certified life-sciences projects.

Economic Council OKs Job-Creating Plans The Economic Assistance Coordinating Council has approved certified tax incremental financed projects in Boylston, Lowell, Quincy and Westwood that are expected to create 76 new jobs, retain more than 250 existing jobs and bring $68.5 million in private investment to Massachusetts.

The projects were certified under the Economic Development Incentive Program, a state and local tax incentive program that can significantly reduce the cost of doing business for companies expanding or locating in the state.

Certified projects may receive state tax incentives, including a five-percent investment tax credit for qualifying assets. There also is a 10 percent abandoned-building tax deduction for costs associated with the renovation of buildings that have been more than 75-percent vacant for at least the previous two years. In addition, such businesses qualify for municipal tax incentives, including tax increment financing or special tax assessments.

"The EDIP program is yet another tool the Patrick administration has to enhance the conditions for business expansion and job growth in the Commonwealth," said Gregory Bialecki, undersecretary for business development, in a prepared statement.
