Aurora City Council on Oct. 28 approved a 12-year, 100% property tax abatement for Piping Rock Health Products LLC. Documents submitted to the city indicate that in 2026, the company plans to add 20 new jobs at its Aurora site, which already has 260 employees. The company maintains a packaging and warehouse facility at the property and plans to add on to one structure and build another.
The new employees would add $1.16 million to the company’s payroll. Aurora’s income tax rate is 2%, so even with the tax abatement, the city will realize about $23,200 in increased revenue, Payroll Administrator Marcy Janus said.
