TIF Money: Who’s Getting Served?

Tax Increment Financing funds are meant to revitalize communities. But under Alderman Joe Moore, Rogers Park’s TIF money often prioritizes business interests over pressing neighborhood needs.

Transparency is lacking, and residents are left out of decisions affecting their own community.

We deserve fair use of our tax dollars and leadership that puts people first.
