Lastly, he noted the vocational payments to District 87.

Mr. Heniff stated that with the Downtown TIF District expiring, staff
prepared a PowerPoint presentation regarding the final year of the
Downtown Lombard TIF. The presentation included the history of the
TIF, and many key private and public projects that were undertaken
during the life of the TIF. He also covered the next steps the Village will
be required to take to begin the TIF close out effort, stating that DuPage
County will be notified of the Village’s intent to utilize the 2023
assessment as part of the TIF close out effort.
He then noted that the respective taxing district will be informed of the
pending closure and that the School District should begin to review the
various components and past payment obligations that are a part of the
TIF dispersal effort.
Mr. Perry and Mr. Champman sought clarification from Mr. Sexton
relative to the applicable years in which the schools would receive the
full levy and when the past obligations would cease. He stated that the
2025 tax year would collect the levy from the 2024 tax year, which is the
first year after the TIF is closed.
