Joint Review Board

State law requires a Joint Review Board (JRB) to oversee Tax Incremental Districts (TIDs). State law defines its members and responsibilities. JRB members represent a taxing jurisdiction (municipality, county, school, technical college).  It is the JRB’s responsibility to approve or deny the creation or amendment of a TID. When the JRB approves a TID, it agrees the development needs for Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) to proceed. The JRB jurisdictions agree to sacrifice some amount of tax revenue for years into the future expecting the tax base will ultimately increase.

The JRB meets annually to review the City's TID Annual Report.  Members are selected from the Common Council, Sheboygan County, Plymouth School District, Lakeshore Technical College, and City residents.

For more information, visit the Wisconsin Department of Revenue website or view the Tax Incremental Financing Manual.
