Comment on How Do TIFS Work? by Zellores Harrison

How do I find out if the TIF Program will be coming to my area? I am in the 20th Ward Alderman Willie B. Cochran and the last 2 rounds of TIF Programs were not announced in my area, the Alderman is really not informative to any type of information for the community and when he does; he sends information out late which leaves us out of the loop. Please contact me to let me know the next round of TIF in the area…I am considered the 20th Ward 47th/Halsted TIF NIP. Thanks Zellores
