INFORMATION ITEM
Discussion of Olivette TIF Commission. The Board of Education discussed a possible request from the City of Olivette for Tax Increment Financing (TIF) in relation to a proposed project at the southwest corner of the intersection of Olive Boulevard and I-170. A TIF is a method of financially supporting development that involves approving the alteration of the typical taxation requirements by the municipalities and/or government organizations with taxing authority over the development, such as a school district. The purpose of the meeting was to share current information in regard to the project, and no specific decision has been reached by the Board of Education at this time.
