Among other terms, the Governor agreed that the state would immediately pursue legislation to create a special tax credit zone for the project and make specified other changes to current law. As part of a special session on economic development, the Assembly Committee on Organization subsequently introduced a bill that makes changes relating to the terms outlined in the memorandum of understanding, together with other changes to current law.
