TIF District

The Windsor Locks Downtown Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District is the first of its kind in the state of Connecticut.  The TIF allows 100% of the tax value newly created in the district to be captured by the town in a special TIF Development Program Fund, which may be put to a variety of uses in the district, including incentives for developers.
