Dr.  Kenneth  Krizhas  co-edited  a  new  book  titled  “Tax  Increment  Financing  and  Economic  Development.”  The  book  brings  together  leading  experts  to  examine  the  evolving  nature  of  tax  increment  financing  (TIF),  the  most  widely  used  tool  of  local  economic  and  community  development.  Originally  designed  as  an  innovative  approach  to  the  redevelopment  of  blighted  areas,  TIF  has  become  a  more  general-purpose  tool  of  economic  and  community  development.</div>
