TIF Vacant Building Rehab Ordinance
The TIF Vacant Building Rehab Ordinance final passed the city council in July and there is 1 million available for rehab work but only in one TIF District so far, Ogden Pulaski District. Read more about it:

The new ordinance allows property owners to bundle several two and three flats together for one rehab development. I think this should make the project more appealing as most of the vacant building are smaller properties.
