Land Value Tax
The conventional property tax Tax on buildings Tax on land Henry Georgia in 1865 A land value tax or split-rate tax Captures more value from transportation More efficient in land use 5
Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
Public improvements tend to cause a rise in property values in adjoining areas, causing an increase in property taxes. TIF uses these future increments in property taxes generated by new development to finance the initial costs of the development itself.
