Holdrege Tax Increment Financing Projects
A plain-language guide to publicly available information on Tax Increment Financing (TIF) and community redevelopment projects in the City of Holdrege, Nebraska (Phelps County). Built for residents, candidates, and researchers who want official numbers and documents in one place.
In Nebraska, TIF is authorized by the Community Development Law, Neb. Rev. Stat. §18-2101 et seq. Cities may use the increase in property tax revenue from a redevelopment project (the “increment”) for a limited time to help pay eligible public improvements in areas designated blighted and substandard. Base-year taxes continue to flow to all taxing entities; only the increment is diverted during the TIF term (typically up to 15 years, or until the obligation is paid).
Overview
—
How to read these numbers: “Base value” is the taxable value before the redevelopment improvements. “Excess” or increment value is the increase after improvements. TIF payments to a redeveloper generally come from taxes on that increment, for a capped dollar amount or term of years—whichever comes first under the redevelopment contract.
Projects
