Heyworth Schools To Benefit From Expiring TIF

Heyworth Schools are set to benefit from an expiring TIF in the community and its district leader says this is a win/win for taxpayers.

 

On the WHOW Morning Show Tuesday, Superintendent Dr. Lisa Taylor told Regional Radio, the TIF that fell within the school district is expiring. She explains the City of Heyworth generously kicked back some of those dollars to the school district because the development meant more kids in the school.

 

 

As the TIF expires, Dr. Taylor explains those levy dollars now shift to the school district exclusively. This is going to allow them to significantly decrease their levy.

 

 

According to Dr. Taylor, property taxes are among the several issues they seem to hear a lot of feedback on from their community members. She hopes instead of turning to social media for information, individuals with questions or concerns will reach out directly to the district office to get more information.

 

 

Dr. Taylor notes there is always a lot of moving components to a school district's budget but she is always happy to sit down with any community member and discuss its impact on them.
