6. The RDA makes the following findings as required by Wis. Stats. §66.1105, to wit:
6.1. The Amended Project Plan demonstrates that TID 4 has accumulated aggregate incremental
property taxes greater than the amount of total project costs; and

debt service and project cost obligations; and

manner desired by the City and RDA; and
TID 4 Amended Project Plan page 4 of
66
6.8. The improvement of the area is likely to significantly enhance the value of substantially all of
the other real property in both TID 4 and TID 13; and
6.9. The economic benefits of both TID 4 and TID 13, as measured by increased property value,
employment, and income,
6.9.1. Are greater than the cost of the improvements identified in the respective Project Plans;
and
6.9.2. Are greater than the anticipated tax increments to be paid by owners of real property
within the overlying taxing jurisdictions; and
6.10. The TID 4 and TID 13 Project Plans are feasible and in conformity with the City
Comprehensive Plan.
Proposed Amendment
Amend the Non-Project Costs section of the TID 4, Downtown/Washington Apartments Project Plan to
