Impact analysis
TRID financing uses a share of future tax revenue growth around the transit station to pay for improvements, rather than raising current taxes — the exact dollar amounts haven't been finalized publicly.
Residents, businesses and property owners in East Liberty and surrounding parts of Districts 7, 8 and 9 could benefit from transit-oriented reinvestment.
Critics note the on-site affordability (5% at 80–120% AMI) is modest, and taxing bodies forego 70% of new tax revenue for two decades.

Standing Committees — November 10, 2026
A roughly $183 million two-phase development — 199 apartments on the former Club One site and a redeveloped Eastside Village plaza near Bakery Square — funded partly by a $10.65 million tax-increment borrowing. Council Member Mosley pushed it to a public hearing to scrutinize the community benefits agreement and the affordability terms (5% on-site at 80–120% AMI, plus 10% off-site at 50% AMI).
