MEGA BDP• Averaged $1.8 billion in awards each year 

from 2008‐2010• Impact on General Fund very difficult to 

forecast• Funded via “credit card” to be paid in 

future years• Variable effectiveness: in certain years far 

fewer jobs realized than forecasted• $14,310 per job1 (job creation)• $74,661 per job1 (retention)

• Averaged less than $100 million in awards each year from 2012‐2014 

• Impact on General Fund known with certainty

• Funded via “checkbook”; appropriated and paid for up front

• Strong effectiveness: approximately 100% of jobs forecasted are realized

• $6,818 per job2 (job creation)
