OVERVIEW: TIF #1 NEW HOPE ROAD FUND
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) authorized by Texas Tax Code Chapter 311 local governments
can publicly finance needed structural improvements and enhanced infrastructure within a
defined area – a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) – to encourage desired
development. The tax increment is derived from the difference in appraised value between the
year in which the reinvestment zone is established (base year) and each year the reinvestment
zone is in existence.
An important element of the City's strategic plan - Imagine Kennedale 2015 - was to convert
properties in the southwestern portion of the City to residential use. The City updated the
Comprehensive Land Use Plan and created a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) to fund
off-site infrastructure improvements, namely the extension of water and sewer service,
reconstruction of New Hope Road, and the addition of hike and bike trails along Kennedale
Branch. TIRZ participation agreements with Tarrant County, Tarrant County College District,
and the Tarrant County Health District were completed in 2013. The City has not yet seen
significant development in the TIRZ but continues cooperating with owners and prospective
developers to convert the racetrack properties. A water and sewer study to plan for the
extension of the utility services is complete.
