The TIF Board is charged with downtown revitalization and development through an established TIF (Tax Increment Financing) District. The Board gets its funding from increased property values in the district that result from the improvements it constructs. Currently, downtown Kingman and the surrounding blocks comprise this TIF district. Past projects of the TIF Board include the burying of downtown electric lines, new street lights, the clock tower, the Red Barn parking garage, and the bulb outs. The TIF Board is currently working on a final list of projects for the district before its authorization expires.
