Commissioner Jeff Barth sent this information to me from the county’s equalization office;
The combined worth of TIF’s in Minnehaha County is $91,326,856. Of this number the base value (Number that is taxed and distributed to all entities) of $28,861,936 is subtracted from the total leaving $62,464,928 that is considered increment value and is taxed and used to pay off the Increment Districts. I can show you individual projects if needed. TIF’s are in the County, Sioux Falls City, Brandon City and Dell Rapids City.
