    Please limit the number of links to 3 links per post. Posts with more than that will be (incorrectly) flagged as spam and will require approval (by me.) The immediate effect is that your post won't show up until it's approved. If you have more than 3 links to post, please use separate replies.

    ChrisH - I am not ducking your request but am trying to get out of town for the New Years holiday. Hopefully we will all take some time away from this website which has clearly become an obsession for a bunch of us. I want to be careful and not post a few right away, because I don't want the response to be "that was all you could come up with?". Call me paranoid. I also prefer to do a little research before posting a link to make sure I understand the full story. This takes some time.

    No problem. I was thinking the same thing (taking a break for New Years as many did over Christmas.) I look forward to it. Have a good holiday.

    I posted a link to three articles I found, but the post has not appeared. Admin, could you provide some assistance as I fear my post has been flagged as spam. Any advise on how to post more links without experiencing this problem? Thanks in advance.

    I'll start posting them one at a time. Here is a link to a success story in Elmhurst.

    Here is one from the New Hampshire Office of State Planning, a State Agency:

    Here is some anecdotes from an Indiana State Agency

    Here is one from the local government of St. Charles, IL. It is interesting because more comprehensive planning was performed after the TIF was created.

    Here are a series of articles and editorials from the Dubuque (Iowa) Telegraph Herald that seem to fairly represent the pro-- and anti-TIF position:

    Here is an article that talks about how the town of Geneva is using some TIF funds for lighting in their downtown and along the river. I am posting it because Geneva strikes me as another good example of a town like Riverside that has used a TIF.
