Of course, no one admits that the entity would have built there anyway and the taxpayers would have indeed benefited from an increased tax base, etc. <br /><br />Instead it is never-ending series of abatements and TIFS and abated TIFS (yes there have been abatements in TIFS), with the promise of lower overall taxpayer burdens becoming ever more elusive.Citizen Kanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17083803017411939029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-69031084536444301952011-04-16T11:16:25.940-04:002011-04-16T11:16:25.940-04:00Also the recent development of Glendale MallAlso the recent development of Glendale MallAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-31045969049261183052011-04-15T15:56:58.536-04:002011-04-15T15:56:58.536-04:00Josh, I'd point to the United maintenance faci...Josh, I'd point to the United maintenance facility at the Airport and the Circle Centre Mall to name two big projects.Had Enough Indy?https://www.blogger.com/profile/09673791504434523246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826828000189814347.post-14892283189107771862011-04-15T14:58:59.569-04:002011-04-15T14:58:59.569-04:00Pat, I have a question for you on this.

I always thought the TIF dollars could only be used for infrastructure projects (i.e. streets, streetscape, sewers, curbs, sidewalks, etc...) I had no idea that it could be used to actually build a private companies factory. Do you have examples of where this has been done in Indy?JoshBowlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08078780616864846324noreply@blogger.com
