Kelsay, Ph.D., UMKC Department of Economics Study commissioned by ReclaimDemocracy.org/kc Executive Summary Kansas City, Missouri, like many other cities, uses Tax Increment Financing (TIF) as an economic development tool to attract and retain business and jobs. TIF, in theory, has the dual purpose of reducing adverse conditions like blight while enhancing the tax base. In a TIF project taxes are frozen at pre-TIF levels, and the property tax that would have been due on the increased value of the property is abated and diverted by the taxing authority (city, county, school district) to the TIF Commission which uses the money to cover its costs and to reimburse the project developer for costs covered in the TIF plan or to repay a revenue bond issued for the plan. This is called payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) Missouri is one of only nine states which also abate Economic Activity Taxes (EAT) and one of only four states which include earnings and profit taxes in addition to sales and use taxes in EATs. Kansas City, Missouri also allows Super TIF which permits the usual 50% abatement on EATs to rise to 100%.

  • Maximizing Job Creation
    Maximizing Job Creation: An Analysis of Alternatives for the Transformation of the Kansas City Plant Dr. Teresa D. Nelson and Dr. Lloyd J. Dumasi (Prepared for KC Peace Planters: July 2011) Introduction Investment is one of the most important processes for economic growth and development. Whether it is publicly or privately financed, there are always two key issues. First, is there a high enough expected rate of return to make the investment worthwhile? And second, how risky is it? That is, what are the chances that the investors will actually receive substantially less than that expected rate of return? Any sensible investment strategy pays attention to both these matters. Furthermore, there are always alternative projects into which public or private investors can put their money. Therefore, it is a fundamental rule of wise investment strategy to compare risk and rates of return across a range of alternatives before committing to any particular use of funds. This is no less true of public investments than those made by the private sector. If anything it is more true, since the credit worthiness of governments and the tax revenues they collect from hardworking taxpayers are valuable public assets. Government officials entrusted with making decisions that maximize public benefit are obligated by that trust to invest these assets with great care. With these considerations in mind, this report considers the relative effectiveness for the people of Kansas City of using publicly raised funds to facilitate the development i Teresa D. Nelson is an independent researcher and consultant with a Ph.D in Public Policy and Political Economy from the University of Texas at Dallas.

  • Kansas City's Niche in Agricultural Economic Development
    MIDCONTINENT PERSPECTIVES Midwest Research Institute Kansas City, Missouri April 13, 1983 C.L. William Haw President and Chief Executive Officer, National Farms, Inc. Kansas City, Missouri Kansas City’s Niche In Agricultural Economic Development My subject is going to be a little different from that of my usual presentations in that although I am going to talk about farm economics I am going to tie my remarks to some specific thoughts about this beautiful and livable city, its history in agribusiness, some misconceptions about our present role in agribusiness, and what I perceive to be Kansas City’s most significant opportunity for agribusiness-related economic development. I want to make it clear from the first that although I am a director of the Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Trade, these will be my own thoughts. You will not find me to be a cheerleader for all aspects of where we are, but I hope you will find some optimism – maybe even excitement – for our opportunities to capitalize on the strengths that we have in Kansas City. Before we can do that, though, we have to understand what those strengths are and what they are not. I am going to try to break my remarks down into the following areas. First, I will give a brief description of our company, National Farms, partly to give you a perspective of my perspective and partly because I love to talk about it and you are my captive audience for a little while! Second, I want to draw a distinction between agriculture, which is our business, and agribusiness, which is the business of Kansas City.

    REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT AT 5TH & MAIN DATE OF ISSUANCE: September 4, 2020 SECTION I. INSTRUCTIONS AND CONDITIONS INTRODUCTION The Port Authority of Kansas City, Missouri (“Port KC”), a political subdivision authorized under Chapter 68, RSMo, is inviting professional, qualified real estate development entities (each a “Developer”) to submit their proposals (each a “Proposal”) for the development of a mixed-income multi-family residential/office/retail/mixed-use structured parking project (the “Development Project”) on approximately 1-acre of real property located at 5th & Main in the historic River Market neighborhood in Kansas City, Missouri (the “Development Site”). The Development Site currently serves as a public surface parking lot and is legally described and depicted on Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein. The Development Site is currently owned by the City of Kansas City, Missouri (“City”), but Port KC and the City are parties to a certain Intergovernmental Cooperative Agreement, attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit B, which provides for Port KC’s acquisition and development of the Development Site. Any Developer electing to submit a Proposal must also work in good faith with Port KC towards the construction of a Low Income Housing Tax Credit (“LIHTC”) project, or an otherwise substantively comparable project, on a parcel within Port KC’s Master Planned Development approved by City’s governing body pursuant to Ordinance No. 140583, that will include the construction of not less than 40 residential units located in the Berkley Riverfront Development area. A Developer may propose that the LIHTC project, or an otherwise substantively comparable project, alternatively be located in the River Market area, but is advised that any location outside of the Berkley Riverfront Development Area would be subject to additional approval by City and Port KC makes no representations as to the acceptability of such alternative location.
