October 27 is opening day for Jefferson City’s new Big Lots
A major retailer that will replace the former Best Buy store on Jefferson City’s Missouri Boulevard aims to open in late October.
Store management in Jefferson City tells 939 the Eagle that Big Lots aims to open on October 27, which is a Thursday. They’re still hiring employees, and the employees will be paid very week.
The Ohio-based retailer is a discount store and offers shoppers numerous items, including furniture, mattresses, food, Christmas trees and Halloween decorations.
Big Lots is located on the heavily-traveled boulevard, next to Planet Fitness. A Best Buy operated in that location for 15 years, before closing about a year ago.
MDA director and Missouri commodity groups say tax credits are critical to rural economic development
Missouri’s commodity groups are praising the passage of a six-year extension for agricultural tax credits.
Governor Mike Parson (R) has signed the legislation into law, and he was joined by Missouri Pork Association (MPA) executive vice president Don Nikodim and other farm group leaders. Nikodim tells 939 the Eagle that the extension is very important.
“The Missouri Agriculture and Small Business program run through the department here (Missouri Department of Agriculture) helps farmers figure out some things that they need to do to be successful in a business plan etc. And so those dollars are going to be allocated based on the same formula as other tax credits for business innovation are,” Nikodim says.
The Columbia-based Missouri Cattlemen’s Association also joined Governor Parson at the bill-signing ceremony. The tax credits include programs for biodiesel, meat processing facilities and urban farming.
Meantime, Missouri Department of Agriculture (MDA) director Chris Chinn is also praising the bill’s passage. She says the tax credits are vital to economic development in rural Missouri. Director Chinn tells 939 the Eagle that those tax credits helped the Mid-Missouri Energy ethanol plant in west-central Missouri’s Malta Bend get started.
“We’re really excited about that because it’s added value to the corn farmers in that area, but more importantly to that rural community. It’s provided good-paying jobs in that community,” Chinn says.
Malta Bend is a small farming town of about 175 residents located on Highway 65, between Marshall and Carrollton.
