Purpose
To develop and execute projects that will halt property value deterioration and increase property tax valuation; eliminate the causes of deterioration; and maintain and upgrade the economic viability of the designated business corridor using tax increment financing, or TIF, and grant funding for a 20-year period. The Corridor encompasses Nine Mile Road from Cloverlawn east to the City of Ferndale border, and Coolidge Highway for its entire span within the City of Oak Park.
