Economic Development - Maryland Enhanced Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Districts
Hearing 3/05 at 1:00 p.m. (House)
Summary
The measure lets the Maryland Economic Development Corporation and qualifying local governments issue bonds to fund major development projects that meet specific criteria, such as having a convention center, being near transit, and costing over $500 million. It also allows those entities, and the state itself, to pledge incremental sales and income taxes, as well as other local revenues, to a special fund that repays the bonds. The goal is to provide new financing tools for large‑scale economic‑development projects.
