Since the legislation approving economic development agreements typically doesn’t appropriate funding, it is important for Council to be aware of existing financial obligations when considering proposed City incentives. We recommend that DIA be required to include, as part of the legislative file with each piece of legislation, a complete list of all outstanding commitments, funding status of each commitment along with the source of funding, and anticipated payments by fiscal year. This would allow for a more formal tracking of all outstanding commitments for DIA projects and it will also provide the Finance Department an estimated time frame on when the payments would be made for each project. We recommend that the Ordinance Code be amended to include this requirement.
