Town Tax Incremental Finance
Project Plan Amendments
When amending a Town Project Plan, there are several important steps that must be followed to comply with state law. Primarily, these deal with public notices and the adoption of specific resolutions.
The Timeline for Amending TIF Project Plans, available below, describes the different kinds of amendments and lays out the steps involved in adopting them.
Also, the Guide to Wisconsin's Tax Increment Law details the requirements for the public notices that are required (one of the requirements that must be strictly followed), and the TID Project Plan Amendment Checklist walks you through, step-by-step, to help you make sure you have completed all the necessary forms and resolutions.
We make these materials available to help you through the TIF amendment process. Please use them; then let the TIF Team know if other tools would be of help, or if you have any comments on the usefulness of the tools we have now.
