From The Illinois Policy Institute:
Tax increment financing (TIF) has been around for over thirty years, many people do not understand how it works, how it affects their communities or their pocketbooks. Many TIF developments take root in areas that are not exactly “blighted.” There is an unacceptable lack of transparency in the world of TIFs. TIF districts cost taxpayers dearly and are used as slush funds for politicians. Learn how you can help stop TIF abuse by reading the Liberty Leader Policy Point here.
