Springfield city council is expected to vote tonight on the plan for a bond-funded expansion of the Kraft plant.

Kraft is asking the city for millions in bonds to help pay for a series of upgrades,  including new equipment and product lines.

A "yes" vote tonight will only approve the industrial plan itself.

The bonds would have to be issued at a future council session.

The Kraft plant employs about a thousand workers.
