More… REDA, a performance-based tax incentive, is a phased-in program that provides larger incentives to developers during the initial development stage. The developers who bring projects to the area in the early stages are accepting more risk; they will incur more costs for marketing their development and may experience slower sales than projects that are built after the market is established. Costs to develop the projects are also generally higher due to the lenders ability to mitigate risk by charging higher interest rates or to require more up-front equity, thus negatively effecting the developer’s pro forma. A clearly defined need must exist and be proven by each development initiative before funding under REDA will be considered. Any incentive that is approved by the CRA Board will be paid during and/or after construction of a project. Approved projects will require a Development Agreement among the CRA and the developer.Less…
