BACKGROUND

On January 13, 2020, City Council held a public hearing and approved an ordinance establishing the City of Plano Tax Increment Financing Reinvestment Zone Number Four (TIRZ#4).  The ordinance included a preliminary Project and Finance Plan that adhered to the Development Agreement parameters.

On December 14, 2020, City Council approved a Funding Agreement with Collin Creek Development, LLC. (Developer) that further defined the scope of TIRZ#4 projects that will utilize TIRZ#4 funds. The Funding Agreement was amended and restated on August 9, 2021. Amendments included eliminating federal grants and funding for the East Garage. In addition, the City agreed to shift TIRZ funding from the West Garage to the East Garage.  Those changes necessitated amending the Project and Finance Plan.

 

This action calls a public hearing to consider the Amended and Restated Final Project and Finance Plan.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY/STRATEGIC GOALS

The Amended Plan projects the financial impact of a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone surrounding the Collin Creek Mall property, which estimates the portion of future property tax revenue generated within the zone. Those funds to remain within the zone will be unavailable to Plano's General Fund and General Obligation Debt Fund.

 

This item relates to the City's Strategic Plan Critical Success Factors of Residential and Commercial Economic Vitality and Excellent, Innovative, and Accountable City Government.
