  • Tax Increment Financing (Tif)
    TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF) National Association of Realtors November 2002 Prepared for the National Association of Realtors by Professor Craig L. Johnson, PhD Indiana University School of Public and Environmental Affairs Robinson and Cole Law Firm Boston Part One TIF Primer Copyright © 2002 National Association of Realtors. All rights reserved. Not for publication without written permission. Executive Summary Since the first TIF law passed in California in 1952, tax increment financing (TIF) has spread throughout the nation to become a useful, effective tool for local governments to finance capital projects in support of economic development. Though TIF laws are on the books in 48 states and the District of Columbia, the application of generic TIF principles varies greatly across states. TIF was originally designed and justified as a local method of self-financing the redevelopment of blighted urban areas. TIF has successfully fulfilled its original intent by spurring the redevelopment of several blighted areas. Now, the use of TIF to raise project finance money has expanded into other areas. TIF bond proceeds commonly finance projects in non-blighted, as well as blighted areas, and for a variety of purposes associated with redevelopment, development, or related physical infrastructure improvements, such as elementary and secondary educational facilities, roads, bridges, parking facilities, recreational facilities, water and wastewater facilities, and electrical power plants. TIF has financed a wide variety of successful commercial and industrial projects. In addition, TIF projects have been successful at building affordable housing, assisting in the revitalization of low-income and moderate-income neighborhoods, and tackling modern, technical redevelopment problems, like redeveloping contaminated sites such as brownfields.
