OVERVIEW OF CRYSTAL'S TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICTS
Tax Increment Financing District #2150 (TIF Redevelopment District #1) - CLOSED
This fund is used to account for collection and disbursement of tax revenues for activities within
Bass Lake Road -Becker Park Redevelopment Project Area, which is the area around Bass Lake
Road and West Broadway. This is also known as the TIF District #2150 or TIF District 91. The
date of the first receipt of tax increment by this district was July 1984. The last receipt of tax
increment was in December 2009, and the district expired on December 31, 2009. It will be
possible to still expend District money in future years for existing obligations. Money remaining
in the fund at this time came entirely from sources other than tax increments, so the remaining
money and land inventory was transferred to the EDA Fund at the end of 2012.

the district will expire on December 31, 2016. This fund returns a set amount of tax increment
back to the property owners as part of a development agreement. Revenue notes are payable only
if sufficient tax increment is generated by the properties. Under state law, 25% of the tax
increment revenues can be pooled with other tax increment districts for similar development
projects.
