Karges Lofts TIF Allocation Area

Summary

The old Karges Furniture Factory is being turned into Karges Lofts, and the city's new TIF district for it just got final confirmation. The developer's property taxes there will go toward paying off project bonds instead of general city funds — but it's a developer-purchase bond, so if revenues fall short, it's not on the city.
