What you need to know: Implementation is technically more complicated than developing a charging schedule; the 2014 regulations have introduced some useful amendments;
a number of policies are discretionary and require a decision to ‘turn on’ and there is little in the regulations regarding how to spend CIL.

Tax-Increment Financing - How to Effectively Use it in Your Community - GSMSu...GrowSmart Maine
Why plan for growth and change, when it seems so much easier to simply react?
When there is a distinct and shared vision for your community - when residents, businesses and local government anticipate a sustainable town with cohesive and thriving neighborhoods - you have the power to conserve your beautiful natural spaces, enhance your existing downtown or Main Street, enable rural areas to be productive and prosperous, and save money through efficient use of existing infrastructure.
This is the dollars and sense of smart growth.
Success is clearly visible in Maine, from the creation of a community-built senior housing complex and health center in Fort Fairfield to conservation easements creating Forever Farms to Rockland's revitalized downtown. Communities have options. We have the power to manage our own responses to growth and change.
After all, “Planning is a process of choosing among those many options. If we do not choose to plan, then we choose to have others plan for us.” - Richard I. Winwood
And in the end, this means that our children and their children will choose to make Maine home and our economy will provide the opportunities to do so.
The Summit offers you a wonderful opportunity to be a part of the transformative change in Maine that we’ve seen these gatherings produce. We encourage you to consider the value of being actively involved in growing Maine’s economy and protecting the reasons we choose to live here.

Reference BID Article
The Town of Hillsborough recently issued the first assessment-backed revenue bonds in North Carolina. The town borrowed $4.63 million at 7.75 percent interest for a 10 year term to fund public infrastructure associated with a private development project. According to the town’s preliminary assessment resolution, the borrowed funds will be used to establish parks and open space, construct and improve water, wastewater and drainage facilities, construct and improve streets, roads, and rights-of-way in the assessment district, which encompasses a 210 acre area within the town. The town imposed assessments totaling $6.2 million on properties located in the assessment district, with payments allowed over a 10.5 year period. (For more information on the development project, click here.)
