What is the status of economic incentives for local businesses? Here is what happened at the July 15 Economic Development Committee meeting regarding TIF and ERZ zones. 🧵 #MeetingWatch #BradfordNH
The committee discussed the need to inform businesses located within Tax Increment Financing (TIF) and Economic Revitalization Zones (ERZ) about available incentives. The plan is to use regional resources to design and mail outreach postcards.
To move forward, the committee must now obtain an accurate mailing list for these specific zones. This outreach aims to ensure local business owners are actually aware of the financial tools available to them.
Additionally, the committee noted that the BACC non-profit is currently unable to make progress due to a lack of active officers to handle essential tasks like banking. Stay tuned as we follow these developments. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/bradford/economic-development/2026-07-15/
During the Economic Development Committee meeting on July 15, two key issues regarding local organizational capacity and business support were addressed. First, the committee discussed the need for better communication with businesses located within Tax Increment Financing (TIF) and Economic Revitalization Zones (ERZ). To ensure business owners are aware of available incentives, the committee is planning to use regional planning resources to design and mail outreach postcards. The next step is for the committee to secure an accurate mailing list for these specific zones to facilitate this process. Second, the meeting highlighted an administrative hurdle for the BACC 501(c)(3). The committee noted that progress is currently stalled because there are no active officers—such as a President, VP, or Treasurer—available to manage necessary functions, including banking operations. We will continue to monitor how these administrative gaps and outreach efforts impact local economic growth. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/bradford/economic-development/2026-07-15/ #MeetingWatch #BradfordNH
