Since the demise of redevelopment in <br />California in 2011, DTA has continued its tax increment work outside of California by <br />working on TIF programs for projects in Illinois, Nevada, New Mexico, South Carolina, <br />Tennessee, and Texas. <br />One unique focus of DTA's efforts has been combining tax increment consulting <br />services with other public financing techniques to fund public improvements and <br />other community facilities. In particular, DTA has specialized in the use of Tax <br />Increment Financing ("TIF") such as EIFDs, in combination with Revenue Bonds <br />(e.g., parking structures), CFDs, Lease Agreements, and local area benefit impact fee <br />programs, with these other programs often providing funding prior to the availability of <br />TIF revenues and bond issuances.
