Cassens Transporting Co./Cassens Land Inc. will use an enterprise-zone agreement approved by county commissioners to expand and add employees. They will receive tax incentives of 75% for ten years on the construction of a 24,000-square-foot building for its trucking operation.
Cassens Transport plans to hire 30 new employees and keep the 120 already employed at the Lordstown operation. The company is primarily an auto carrier and the expansion will handle General Motors products. They plan to spend a maximum of $2.3 million on construction, $75,000 on furniture and fixtures and $110,000 in inventory. The company expends approximately $7.2 million in annual salary, which will be increased by $1.8 million with the expansion.
The project would not have moved forward without the tax incentives now approved by village and county commissioners. The project will help Cassens Transport and General Motors. The commissioners were happy to approve the tax agreement and keep the company operating in the county. The 30 additional jobs will make the company more competitive in the marketplace.
I wouldn’t buy more than you need to start off with, start off with a shared hosting plan . Once it starts getting more popular, and you actually need to move, then you can upgrade to a VPS, then a dedicated. I don’t see any need to skip steps when you are starting out from new. It’s easy enough to switch hosting, to a different provider or to upgrade to a different platform. You’ll still be able to upgrade pretty quick between platforms, just to make sure to keep an eye on your growth and then a little bit of comfort room in your estimates/calculations.
