42. Tools • Gross Receipts Investment Policy (GRIP) A developer/retailer pays for the cost of public infrastructure improvements (roads, drainage, water and wastewater lines, etc.) for a project, and in return the city refunds a percentage of the yearly applicable gross receipts tax revenues it receives that are directly attributed to the retail sales of the project/business back to the developer up to a maximum number of years. • Tax Increment Development District (TIDD) A TIDD issues bonds to finance public infrastructure improvements (streets, water, wastewater, drainage). The TIDD bonds are secured by a dedication of certain municipal, county, and/or state-shared gross receipts tax that are generated in the TIDD. The length of time and amount of gross receipts tax dedication that occurs varies by individual TIDDs. • Public Improvement District (PID) A PID provides financing based on levying property taxes on land within a PID, imposing special levies based on benefit to property, front footage, acreage, cost of improvements (or other factors apart from assessed valuation), or by providing for use charges of improvements or revenue-producing projects or facilities. PID taxes, levies and charges may be pledged to pay debt service on bonds issued by a PID. 43
43. Tools • Industrial Revenue Bond (IRB) IRBs enable local governments to provide a mechanism for low-cost financing and other incentives (property tax exemption and gross receipts tax exemption for equipment purchased for facility) for private parties to create facilities that enhance employment in the locality. • Local Economic Development Act (LEDA) Per the New Mexico constitution, local or regional governments - to create new job opportunities - can provide land, buildings or infrastructure for facilities to support new or expanding businesses. The participation agreement sets out the contributions to be made by each party, the security provided to the local government by the qualifying entity, a schedule for project development and completion, and provisions for performance review and actions for unsatisfactory performance. 44
