Fiscal Note
No appropriation required at this time. This resolution is part of the Judge Doyle Square project and the related Development Agreement.

As part of the public financing for the development, the City will return $13.9 million of that amount to the developer through an appropriation from existing TID 25 revenues ($9.7 million) and a portion of the $15 million payment for land and development rights deposited in TID 25 for this purpose ($4.2 million). These and other appropriations will be included in the 2016 Executive Capital Budget for consideration by the Common Council.
