Scott County has an unprecedented opportunity to land one of the largest economic development projects in Iowa's history -- a $1.3 billion nitrogen fertilizer plant that would be the largest of its kind in the United States. Siting the Iowa Fertilizer Company project in Scott County is HUGE for the entire Quad Cities -- a $200 million annual economic impact on the region! Consider the jobs alone: 165 permanent, full-time jobs with average wages of at least $26/hour -- a $9 million annual payroll! 2,500 construction jobs during the three year construction cycle --an annual payroll of $126 million! A projected 610 spin-off jobs from the project -- with a total annual payroll of $32 million! We welcome the Iowa Fertilizer Company to the Quad Cities and ask the Scott County Board to vote YES on this project!
