BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Community Development Authority (CDA) be the body to hold the required public hearing and be the recommending body to the Common Council since the proposed development is within the CDA administered Redevelopment District #2. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the required developer's deposit of $2000 is paid before the official TIF process begins and that costs associated with the TIF process from attorneys, consultants, and staff be paid from this deposit.

Further, the Council would like to see the TIF expenditure method known as "pay as you go" be used for all or the majority of the proposed TIF. The "pay as you go" method only requires expenditure of funds to a developer once specific phases of a proposed development are completed and new tax dollars are realized, thus relieving some burden of debt on the City.
