Program: The Iowa Journal #145
Broadcast Date: Mar. 27, 2008
Critics contend TIFs are handed out like party favors. Tax increment financing is a favored instrument of development for many communities. But at the core lies the questions we’ll explore tonight:

Alan Kemp is Executive Director of the Iowa League of Cities. Peter Fisher is Research Director, Iowa Policy Project.
