Does the Brownfield Redevelopment Financing Act allow for the use of tax increment financing for the development of housing needed to address shortages?
Yes, the 2023 amendments to the Brownfield Redevelopment Financing Act broadened the definitions of “eligible activities” and “eligible property” to allow for tax increment financing of housing development activities where a community has identified a specific housing need.
