Tax Increment Financing
Tax Increment Financing
(TIF) is a financing mechanism that is used to "capture" the property taxes
attributable to increases in assessed value (AV) resulting from new private
development within a particular area.
The increased property taxes that
will be generated from the new development (real and/or depreciable personal
property) are used to finance infrastructure improvements or other incentives
that are needed to induce a particular private development or that will
be needed to facilitate additional development in an area being developed
or redeveloped.
For further information please refer
to Title 50 Article 8 of the Indiana Administrative Code or call Charlene Decker
