BUSINESS INCENTIVES OFFERED BY CITY OF SULLIVAN

​1. Tax Increment Financing (TIF)

Sullivan has four TIF districts. A business can apply for TIF by completing an application and returning it to the City Administrator located at 2 West Harrison Street in Sullivan. The application must be returned prior to any work beginning on the property. The applicant must then negotiate with the city a percentage of the property tax increment to be returned to him/her each year over the life of the TIF. When work on the property is complete, receipts for all eligible expenses must be given to the city. To receive reimbursement, each year, the property owner must send a copy of their paid property tax receipt to the City Treasurer. Reimbursements will continue until the total approved expenses are paid out or until TIF expires.
