DeKALB – The DeKalb City Council will consider creating new tax increment financing districts at its next meeting Monday.

A preliminary report by PGAV Planners shows that areas along South Fourth Street and 2131-2211 Sycamore Road would qualify for a special tax mechanism that local governments can create to encourage economic development.

The report will be discussed at the council’s Committee of the Whole meeting at 6 p.m. at the DeKalb Municipal Building, 200 S. Fourth St. The regular City Council meeting is at 7 p.m.
