During FY 2021-2022, the City had 19 active tax increment financing (TIF) districts.

On June 13, 2007, City Council authorized Ordinance No. 26798, as amended, establishing the Fort Worth Avenue TIF District. On March 26, 2008, the City Council authorized the Project Plan and Reinvestment Zone Financing Plan for this District by Ordinance No. 27129, as amended.
The Fort Worth Avenue TIF District's 2022 assessed taxable value was $787,737,250.00. This represents an increase of $701,603,803.00 (814.6%) over the base year and $203,273,606.00 (34.8%) over the 2021 taxable value. With the City and County's participation, the increase over the base value will result in the collection of approximately $4,503,977.00 in total incremental revenue for FY 2023 (from 2022 values) for the TIF District.
