Tax Increment Financing (TIF)

I found an explanation on a State of Texas website that will be helpful in understanding TIF zones. They talk about this ALL the time during the city council meetings and I believe it is important to understand what this is all about.

It's pretty dense stuff. Later, I'll read through this and try to come up with a "working man's" explanation of what all this means.

Until then.....dig in!!! It's not for the faint of heart.

  1. thanks, Lisa .. not surprising that it's thick as mud .. we've got to dive in, though. i am sure those Dem lawyers downtown crossed every "t" to apply for $300G for renovation ..
    just would like to know more about it.
