Key Kain: advised how P& Z came up with the TIF Policy.
Discussion: Upton had a question about the section under policy considerations — would the applicant need to meet all
the items? Tim Long advised that yes the list of policy considerations would be a requirement to qualify. Upton
expressed concerns with some of the requirements. Tim advised that it is prudent to include this list and council still
would have the ability approve projects as council sees fit. Tim advised that this is a good starting point to tailor what
businesses qualify for TIF in Tiffin. Mayor and Administrator discussed more as to why we need this and then we can
change this document as needed and as council sees fit. All ayes, motion carried
