New developments in cheese and pasta products are in the works for Kraft Foods in Springfield, if it can convince City Council to issue a series of bonds.

Tonight, the company will make a formal appeal for up to 55-million in industrial development revenue bonds. Kraft would get a break on the property tax for new equipment that's purchased with the bond money.

City Council will take first reading on the bill tonight.
