  • Public purpose; and
  • Being for the development of facilities for residential, commercial, industrial, public, or other uses, or for open space, including the development, rehabilitation, installation, improvement, enlargement, or extension of real estate and buildings; and
  • Contributing to economic development or tourism.
• Oversees the use of tax increment financing which is used to channel funding toward improvements in distressed, underdeveloped, or underutilized parts of the City where development might otherwise not occur.
