Hearing to focus on TIF expansion
Council considers change for project near Town Center
By ANITRA ROWE

The Merriam City Council will meet in special session Thursday to set a public hearing on a proposal to amend a city tax increment financing district.
City officials want to enlarge the district to include a 32-acre mixed-use development so the project could be eligible for TIF funds. The financing incentive allows developers to use increased property and sales tax collections from their redeveloped property to help pay for the project.
The current TIF district generally is bordered by Shawnee Mission Parkway, 75th Street and either side of Interstate 35. An amendment could expand the district with new boundaries being Shawnee Mission Parkway, Johnson Drive, Slater Street and Interstate 35.
Thursday's meeting will be at 7 p.m. at the new police station north of Merriam City Hall, 9000 W. 62nd Terrace.
The project informally is tagged the “Grandview Developmentâ€
