​

Community Improvement Districts

​

In 2009, the Kansas Legislature enacted the Community Improvement District Act (the “CID Act”), which allows cities and counties to create districts, initiated by a petition from the property owner(s), in which special taxes are imposed and the revenue is used to fund certain public and private improvements and the payment of certain ongoing operating costs within the bounds of the district. The creation of a Community Improvement District (“CID”) is an economic development tool that can help facilitate beneficial private development and redevelopment without negatively impacting the tax base of the approving municipality.

​

The City of Hoisington has worked with multiple businesses and property owners to create Community Improvement Districts in Hoisington and would work with eligible entities to consider districts that help to enhance Hoisington.

E-Community Incentives

​

In 2011, the City of Hoisington worked with numerous partners to develop the Hoisington Area E-Community.  This program provides funding opportunities for entrepreneurs hoping to take on projects in the Hoisington area.  This area has been defined as the property within Hoisington’s Unified School District 431.   This funding program was made possible through a partnership between Network Kansas and many generous partners that purchased tax credits to provide a pool of funds that will help to provide gap financing for projects and to leverage other public funds for up to 60 percent of the unmet project needs.
