Sign our petition! Say NO TIF!
Last year, the Department of Planning and Development (DPD) proposed expanding the current Pilsen TIF. After significant community opposition, the proposal was assumed to be defeated. However, the Alderman's office, with support from local business interests, revived the proposal. On June 11th, the Community Development Commission advanced the proposal to the City Council. The TIF expansion will further gentrify Pilsen and place more financial burdens on residents. Therefore, we demand that Alderman Sigcho-Lopez and the City Council immediately retract the Pilsen TIF expansion proposal.

Journal Article 3 - Gentrification and Tax Increment Financing: The Road to Mixed-Income Communities?
This paper examines gentrification, its causes and consequences, and illustrates how Tax Increment Financing (TIF) can be used to promote neighborhood change. This process will be analyzed using the Logon and Molotch (1996) theory of the city as a growth machine. The use of TIF has the potential to create successful mixed-income communities; however, it also can be used to displace current residents and create benefits not for the residents, but rather for local elites who stand to benefit from growth.
