“what we be using those Tiff dollars for is to reimburse the developer for a lot of those costs that are really unique to the site that create public benefit and make the project possible”

“it's an 8 Acre Site that used to be gravel and sand pit so there's really no portion of this building other than what's behind us today that's even buildable so there's a lot of site preparation that has to happen that's millions of dollars”

“the final project has a lot of the public space on the exterior as well as public parking on the interior affordable housing units all those things that deliver public benefit cost a lot of money and that's where the Tiff will be spent”
