Fiscal year 2026 surplus and TIF closures

Summary

The authority ended fiscal 2026 with a $2.2 million cash surplus — but officials cautioned much of it is one-time revenue, not a recurring windfall. Two TIF districts are closing: the long-dormant Admiral Place TIF after 12 years, and the Arts District TIF, which hit its $5 million cap, sending leftover funds back to taxing jurisdictions.
