Fiscal Note
The staff and process cost to amend the TID #39 Project Plan and boundary does not require additional borrowing as the cost is eligible to be paid through tax increments generated by TID #39. The amendment would enable the City of Madison to recover the cost of general obligation borrowing in the amount of $1,720,000 for improvements to Femrite Drive authorized as Project Number 23 in the 2009 Engineering - Major Streets Capital Budget. It is anticipated that funds will be required when work commences for the project in 2010. It is expected that tax increments generated by growth in the district will be sufficient to repay the indebtedness without requiring support from the General Fund.
