TIF District Agreement
At last night’s Indian Prairie School District 204 Board meeting the group approved an Intergovernmental Agreement with the City of Aurora regarding tax increment financing in the Route 59 Corridor. According to school officials, key points are reducing years of a TIF district from 23-35 years down to 15, and a provision stating if a TIF property has students there will be no impact on the district. The agreement still needs to be approved by the City of Aurora to make the Intergovernmental Agreement official.
