Don’t miss Indiana Redevelopment Commission 2019 reporting deadlines

Redevelopment Commissions must meet several reporting deadlines during the 2019 calendar year. It is important to adhere to these requirements as the Department of Local Government Finance (DLGF) tracks compliance, and failure to meet the excess notification and neutralization deadlines can jeopardize your ability to capture incremental assessed value.  Below is an outline of filing and deadline requirements for 2019.  View more information.
