KOKOMO, IN -- In hopes of enticing Delphi Electronics & Safety to keep some 3,000 jobs here, city councilors have reportedly approved a $160 million tax abatement for the company. The Common Council will hold a public hearing on the recommended abatement, a precursor to final approval, on Oct. 13.

Monies from the tax abatement would go toward the purchase of new electronics manufacturing equipment, with a reported $100 million earmarked for new equipment at the Kokomo operations.
