Middleton can create Tax Increment District 6 without 12% cap
The law lets the city of Middleton create Tax Increment District 6 even if the city is over the usual 12% limit on taxable value in such districts. The council must create the district on or before June 1, 2025. The law also says a new lifespan rule in the state’s tax increment financing law does not apply to this district. This mainly helps the city and property owners and developers in the district. Other Middleton taxpayers could see indirect effects from local financing choices.
