TIF reform MEG funding bills face last brief action
South suburban lawmakers race to pass four measures including Illinois TIF reform, Robbins and Ford Heights village funds, Tinley Park Mental Health Center land conveyance, and a Cook County MEG grant before outgoing legislators depart. Negotiators say major TIF changes curb incentives for golf course development, cap municipal overhead, require joint board review, and guarantee school district aid for new residential TIFs. Funding for Robbins and Ford Heights targets at least 5 million over 10 years from landfill subsidies, while a 1 million MEG emergency grant may face opposition due to police reassignments and reliance on local anti drug programs.
