Arlington, VA's Incentive Plan for Amazon
Arlington has proposed to provide an annual pay-for-performance grant to Amazon to be funded through the Transit Occupancy Tax (TOT). The TOT is a tax on hotel rooms or other paid lodging. The money for the grant will come from 15% of the incremental TOT revenue generated for 15 years, using 2019 as the baseline.

A New Food Incubator Opens Doors to Food Entrepreneurs in Chicago, IL
The 67,000-square-foot Hatchery complex provides spaces and services for about 100 start-up or early-stage food businesses – and is expected to support up to 900 jobs over 5 years. Financing the $32.4 million development required a mixture of New Market Tax Credits (NMTC), Tax Increment Financing (TIF), grants, and traditional financing.

Schenectady, NY Proposes Special Assessment Districts to Fix Sidewalks
The proposed program would create special assessment districts in the city, as long as 75 percent of the residents living in each district agree. Those residents would then have the option to repay the cost of the improvements in full, or in payments that would be added to their tax bills over a yet-to-be-determined pay period.
