What happened
The Duluth City Council approved subsidies for Titanium's housing project, which is a proposed 148-unit apartment building near Lake Superior College. The council voted to create a Tax-Increment Financing, or TIF, district for the project. This TIF agreement means local governments will forgo nearly $6 million in future tax revenues over 26 years.
Why it matters
The TIF district is a subsidy designed to help the project cover its debt service, as the project cannot support the debt without it. The complex will target college students and young professionals, with 30 units designated as affordable housing.
