CODE: G TYPE: NON- PUBLIC YES CONSENT HEARING: SUBJECT: Conduct Public Hearing and Adopt Ordinance Amending the Project and Financing Plans for Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 4, Southside TIF so as to Continue and Expand Revitalization Efforts in the Near Southside by Adding Approximately $45 Million in Public Improvement Projects (COUNCIL DISTRICTS 8 and 9) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Conduct a public hearing concerning an amendment to the Project and Financing Plans for Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 4, Southside TIF, as set forth in Exhibit A of the attached Ordinance, to afford an opportunity for interested persons to speak for or against the proposed Amendment, the boundaries of the Southside TIF district or the concept of tax increment financing; and 2. Close the public hearing and adopt the attached Ordinance approving the amended Project and Financing Plans for the Southside TIF district. DISCUSSION: The Southside TIF Project and Financing Plan (the Plan) was initially approved by the Southside TIF district board of directors on August 30, 1999 and subsequently approved by City Council on August 31, 1999 (M&C G-12649). On November 1, 2012, the TIF board of directors voted to amend the Plan to allow the TIF district to continue and expand revitalization efforts in the Near Southside by adding approximately $45 million in public improvement projects, raising the total projects funded by the TIF district to just under$90 million. Southside TIF projects can be broken down into nine categories: (1) administration, (2) business development and retail, (3) parking structures, (4) neighborhood parks and plazas, (5) residential, (6) schools, (7) signage, (8) streetscapes, and (9) transportation and infrastructure improvements. Details of specific projects can be found in the amended Plan. As new investment is attracted and revitalization is encouraged, the area will continue to become an economically viable, mixed-use, central city neighborhood for all to enjoy. Before the amended Project and Financing Plans can take effect, state law requires the City Council approve the amended Plan by Ordinance after holding a public hearing at which interested persons may speak for or against the proposed amendment, the boundaries of the Southside TIF district or the concept of tax increment financing. In accordance with state law, notice of the public hearing was published in a newspaper having general circulation in the City at least seven days prior to the date of the hearing. The projects contained within the Project and Financing Plans are located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 8 and 9. http://apps.cfwnet.org/council_packet/mc_review.asp?ID=17787&councildate=12/11/2012 7/30/2013 t MAC Review Page 2 of 2 FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
