Mayor outlines plans to bring new jobs to Covington

Covington Mayor Chuck Scheper has outlined an expanded package of tax rebates to lure new jobs to the Kentucky's fifth-largest city.
 
Scheper said he will contribute half of his mayoral salary, or $15,000, toward a series of independent reviews on cost-savings ideas. He said the city must slow its rate of growth in health care costs and come to terms on new union contracts within 60 days.
