What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, towns may use tax incremental financing (TIF) for limited

purposes. A town may use TIF for projects related to tourism, agriculture,

manufacturing, or forestry. A town may also use TIF for residential projects, but only

to the extent that the residential project has a necessary and incidental relationship

to a tourism, agricultural, manufacturing, or forestry project, and for retail projects

to the extent that the retail development is related to the retail sale of a product that

is produced due to an agricultural, forestry, or manufacturing project.

This bill authorizes the town of Brookfield in Waukesha County to use TIF for

one project that is related either to retail purposes or to a purpose for which any city

or village may create a TIF district.
