KILLINGLY – In addition to adding a new line of snacks to its production line, the planned expansion of the Dayville Frito-Lay plant will also pump additional tax revenue into Killingly’s coffers.
The company, already the largest employer and one of the biggest taxpayers in town, on Wednesday announced a planned $235 million expansion to its Upper Maple Street production and warehouse sites that will allow for the production of its Cheetos-brand snacks for the first time anywhere in the state.
“Clearly, this will mean additional property tax revenue for Killingly,” Town Manager Mary Calorio said on Thursday. “But that revenue will be a smaller dollar amount at first.”
KILLINGLY Utility crews will be in the Dayville section of town this month conducting a series of electric distribution grid upgrade jobs that includes adding stronger poles, new transformers and “extreme” weather-proof wiring.
The $1.45 million project by Eversource is focusing on Upper Maple Street, where two schools are located; Route 101, which includes the commercial stretch housing the Killingly Commons shopping center; and Sayles Avenue.
“Our job is to ensure customers have the reliable energy they need, especially now during these unprecedented times with many working and learning from home,” said Craig Hallstrom, company president of regional electric operations. “By continuing to make strategic investments like these in Killingly, we’re building a more robust and resilient electric grid that will serve our customers well into the future.”
