How much of my taxes go to the city (or county) for debt for the TIF Area?
The amount of increment taxes depends on the relative proportion of base value to increment value in the TIF Area, and also on whether or not the TIF Authority requests all of the available TIF increment taxes in a given year. You can see the distribution of your taxes on your tax bill. For more information, please call the Auditor's Office at 563-245-1106.
