Consolidated Electrical Distributors incentive agreement

West Valley City is weighing a sales-tax rebate to bring Consolidated Electrical Distributors, a Texas-based electrical supplier, to 2475 South 3200 West. Under the draft agreement the city would refund 25% of the sales tax it receives from sales at the site, for 10 years through July 1, 2037, with total payments capped at $9 million. The company must be in place by July 1, 2027. Payments come only from tax the city actually receives. Staff say the city would keep the other 75%, which would be about $27 million over the term if the cap were reached, and that the company would bring over 100 jobs. A city attorney review concluded the arrangement meets the public-benefit test in state law. The $9 million is a ceiling and not money paid. The council held the hearing on Resolution 26-120 on Oct. 13, 2026 and approved the agreement 6-0, with Councilmember Huynh absent, according to the minutes posted with the notice. The agreement is a ceiling on payments, not money paid; nothing has been reported paid yet.

    Public hearing: incentive agreement with Consolidated Electrical Distributors Inc. (Resolution 26-120)

    Approved · 6-0

    Under the draft agreement, the city would rebate 25% of its sales-tax distribution attributable to the company's facility at 2475 South 3200 West. The company, a Delaware corporation based in Irving, Texas, would have to locate at the site by July 1, 2027. The agreement runs to July 1, 2037, with a cap of $9 million, and payments would be made annually from sales tax actually received; the city owes nothing if it receives none. The handout notes that a commenter on Sept. 22 referred to a 15% incentive; the draft states 25%.

    • Term: through July 1, 2037
    • Cap: $9,000,000
    • Facility must be in place by July 1, 2027

    Moved by Councilmember Harmon, seconded by Councilmember Christensen. Vote: Unanimous; Councilmember Huynh absent
