Taxes can be a major burden for businesses, but there are a number of tax incentives and credits available to help Anoka County businesses reduce their tax burden. Business owners can use these incentives to invest in other aspects of business growth and improvement. The Property-Valued Clean Energy Program (PACE) is one of the key local incentives available to Anoka County businesses. This program provides businesses with a credit for investing in energy-efficient improvements.
Businesses can also take advantage of tax credits, such as the Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) credit, which is available to companies that pay premiums for employees enrolled in a qualified health plan offered through the SHOP marketplace. Large companies may also offer small business grants to give back to the community or to help a small business grow in a way that highlights its own mission or marketing message. For example, a women's clothing company committed to sustainability could offer a grant to small businesses that carry out activities that support women and girls in environmental justice issues. Additionally, there may be opportunities to obtain federal small business grants if your company is involved in research and development or if you want to expand employee training.
