SB 1276 - Under current law, municipalities located within counties subject to the authority of the East-West Gateway Council of Governments, except those located in Franklin County, are required to create a county-wide TIF commission for the approval of tax increment finance projects. This act removes reference to the East-West Gateway Council of Governments and specifically requires municipalities located within the counties of Jefferson, St. Louis and St. Charles to create county-wide TIF commissions for approval of projects. The act provides membership requirements similar to those provided under current law, as well as a time-line for public hearings on projects and determinations of the commission.
