Tarter Bros. Seek TIF Funding
Tarter Brothers Mechanical is seeking Tax Increment Financing (TIF) assistance to support building stabilization and exterior improvements at its facility located at 117 E. 4th Street. The proposed project includes foundation repair and reinforcement, installation of exterior metal siding, new windows, and a commercial‑grade garage door. The total cost is estimated at $37,245, with the company requesting $13,398 in city support. Hometown Consulting reviewed the application and recommends an award of $9,311, or 25 percent of project costs, structured as a two‑year forgivable loan. City council members are scheduled to review the recommendation at their next meeting on Tuesday, June 16 before making a final decision on funding as part of ongoing downtown investment efforts locally.
