The portion of the 2016 issue the TIF is responsible for does expire after this year. The remaining debt goes out further, however, the TIF only has to pay its portion through February of 2020. Director Labbe asked City staff to explain the Senior Center Improvements. Chairman Newton stated the Senior Center is a renovated Church on 10 acres, owned by the City.

Director Alanis stated it appears there is a miscalculation for Tarrant County College District’s participation in the TIF #1A.
