Companion to RW-F-6. The gap between the city's inflation-based capture estimate ($127.4 million) and the resident-calculated historical-growth back-test ($233 million) isn't an abstract methodology dispute for property owners inside the district. It represents the actual range of future assessed-value growth that will be captured by the TIF district rather than flowing to the general taxing jurisdictions through 2047. Issue 4 asked whether the eventual ballot would include disclosure sufficient for an individual owner to calculate their own long-term exposure. The commission's July 6 rejection of the proposed language shows at least some commissioners asking a version of that same question themselves.

Watch: The revised language due back July 20, and specifically whether it settles on a single dollar figure, a disclosed range, or a plain description of the calculation method itself, each of which gives a property owner a meaningfully different amount of information to act on.
