Maple Grove tax increment financing special rules authorization
SF 65 authorizes special tax increment financing (TIF) rules for Maple Grove, Minnesota, specifically for areas with challenging soil conditions. It creates "soil deficiency districts" where the city can use TIF to fund infrastructure preparation (like filling or grading) when soil issues impair development and the preparation cost exceeds the land's pre-preparation value. This applies to parcels making up at least 80% of a project area (excluding streets/rail rights-of-way) with conditions like peat soils or terrain requiring substantial filling for commercial use. The bill amends existing TIF laws to allow Maple Grove to utilize this special funding mechanism for qualifying land development projects.
