The County officials say it’s too early to talk about incentives but say that each site will offer from 100 to 300 acres to develop.
While there’s national competition for the Amazon facility, there’s also local competition, including from inside Maryland.
Gov. Larry Hogan — a Republican who could face a challenge from Baker, who’s running in the 2018 Democratic primary — has already made a strong pitch to locate the new Amazon headquarters in Baltimore.
