Ryberg pushes bill to roll back TIF expansion in South Carolina
State Sen. Greg Ryberg seeks to rescind a 2005 TIF amendment that broadened local governments' ability to create tax increment financing districts. The measure, supported by Aiken officials, would return the 1999 Act to its original intent while highlighting concerns over private development subsidies and potential statewide proposals.
