There was a proposal last year to extend TIFs to 40 years -- not 47 -- and while that has passed through committee, it has not yet been brought to a vote in the Assembly. Or the Senate. Or to the governor's desk.Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17542901376907047448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-80021458293564145582010-03-17T14:06:06.042-05:002010-03-17T14:06:06.042-05:00He all ready is.He all ready is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-65889659677091156522010-03-17T11:14:46.408-05:002010-03-17T11:14:46.408-05:00Joshua Abraham Norton for MayorJoshua Abraham Norton for MayorAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-20734651416082413472010-03-17T09:00:54.233-05:002010-03-17T09:00:54.233-05:00Nope no current politician needs to be mayor at th...Nope no current politician needs to be mayor at this point.

The City of Kenosha was and is still allowed to have all of their TIF districts opened for a maximum 47 years. So the City of Racine is not the only City that was allowed the unique legislator tool. The City of Kenosha was able to do this because of their lakefront TIF, where it was stalled for 10 years, the Wisconsin Legislator allowed an exception to the TIF and any future TIF districts to be open a maximum 47 years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-13947018524226807312010-03-17T04:30:06.839-05:002010-03-17T04:30:06.839-05:00Anon 10:08.
