Missed the TIF Illumiator Workshop?

It was a packed house at the McKinley Park Library for the 11th and 12th Ward Illumination. The TIF Illumination Project lit up the 16 TIFs inside those two wards. See the presentation and listen to the audio (59 minutes).

Don't have time to listen? Here's some basics on TIFs

Parents, teachers, & community - call your Alderman. Ask your Alderman to tell the Mayor to declare a TIF surplus.
