Queen Creek Town Council approved changes to its agreement with LG Energy Solutions that extend deadlines for various construction and payment obligations for the town and the car battery maker. The South Korean-based battery manufacturer initially announced it was coming to the town in April 2022 and later announced in March it was quadrupling its initial investment at the plant. The state will provide millions in incentives, including tax credits and a deal-closing fund. Locally, Queen Creek and Pinal County approved a development agreement with LG in 2022 to provide employment incentives and outlined timeline obligations both parties needed to meet.
