City-controlled sites and an active TIRZ give developers a clearer path from site evaluation to project execution, with local coordination and tools that can support eligible infrastructure and redevelopment needs.
Our city-controlled sites give developers a chance to work directly with Sansom Park from the start, making it easier to talk through project fit, infrastructure needs and next steps.
A Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone, or TIRZ, allows Sansom Park to reinvest a portion of new property tax revenue generated within the zone back into the area. Those funds can help pay for approved projects that support redevelopment, infrastructure and private investment.
TIRZ funding can help address costs that may otherwise make a project more difficult, from infrastructure and site improvements to demolition and façade improvements.
Funding depends on the project, eligibility, available TIRZ funds and required approvals.
Sansom Park has used its TIRZ as a practical development tool, investing in property, infrastructure and existing businesses to help position key corridors for their best long-term use.
The TIRZ acquired a key property at the city’s entrance, creating an opportunity for redevelopment that can help shape a more welcoming gateway into Sansom Park.
The TIRZ acquired approximately 15 acres to give the City greater control over how a significant commercial property is positioned for future development.
Coming soon, TIRZ funding will support repaving deteriorated shoulders along SH 199, improving a major commercial corridor and access to surrounding properties.
TIRZ-funded matching grants have helped local businesses reinvest in their properties, improving building exteriors and the appearance of Sansom Park’s commercial corridors.
TIRZ funding helped match the business owner’s investment in exterior improvements.
