Expected Impact:

The transfer of annual Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone revenue into the Aldine TIRZ #1 County Tax Increment Fund will benefit the implementation of capital improvements, housing, and community development projects occurring in the Zone.  

 

Alternative Options:

If the annual transfer is not made, this would adversely affect the funding of capital projects, housing, and development agreements that rely on the annual revenue stream.
