We’ve updated our vast maps database to make changes to 13 TIF districts in the Chicago Cityscape TIF districts layer.
TIF district changes — Added/Updated
The following three TIF districts were added or updated:
- Lake Calumet — Updated. The boundaries were changed to accommodate part of the new 116th/Avenue O TIF district (the original area has been saved as a different map).
- 95th/Western — Updated. Expired July 13, 2018, and the name has been changed to include the word “expired” [1]. However, Mayor Emanuel has proposed extending the duration by 13 years (see below).
- 116th/Avenue O — Added. This TIF district was approved by City Council on October 31, 2018.
TIF district changes — Proposed
These two TIF districts are proposed.
- Cortland/Clybourn — Added as proposed. This is a proposed boundary for a new TIF district that would cover a lot of Sterling Bay’s Lincoln Yards development around the former Finkl Steel site and the city’s soon-to-be-former Fleet & Facility Maintenance (2FM) warehouse. Boundary are subject to change prior to adoption. Adoption will require the truncation of the North Branch (North) and North Branch (South) TIF districts.
- Roosevelt/Clark — Added as proposed. This is a proposed boundary for a new TIF district that would cover all of Related Midwest’s 62-acre site as well as Southbank and Riverline. Adoption will require the truncation of the River South TIF district. Unofficial map.
If you were subscribing to updates to any of the updated TIF districts, please re-subscribe as some of their map IDs have changed to preserve different versions of each map.
TIF district changes —Proposed for early termination
We are also watching Mayor Emanuel’s proposal to terminate five TIF districts early and will update our maps when the City Council approves that.
TIF district changes — Proposed for extension
The Illinois House and Senate approved an extension for the following four TIF districts in Chicago by 13 years, to 2032 to 2034, depending.
- Bryn Mawr/Broadway
- Goose Island
- 95th/Western (this one already expired in July 2018)
- 71st/Stony Island
Notes
[1] We have maps of other expired TIF districts in Chicago that we can offer you upon request. These, that expired between 2015–2017, were moved to a different map layer for storage and they don’t appear in Maps Explorer.
