66.1105(5)(i)1.1. Before a local legislative body may adopt a resolution described in par. (h) 1., the local legislative body must complete a financial analysis, as described in subd. 2., and must amend the project plan so that at least one of the items specified in subd. 3., 4., or 5. occurs. The starting point for determining a tax incremental district’s remaining life, under subds. 4. and 5., is the date on which the joint review board acts under par. (h) 2. and approves the resolution. 66.1105(5)(i)2.2. The local legislative body shall conduct a financial analysis of the tax incremental district that includes, in addition to the items specified in sub. (4) (f) and (i) 1., the annual and total amount of tax increments to be generated over the life of the district, and the annual debt service costs on bonds issued by the city. If the city does not have the expertise to complete the requirements of this subdivision, it shall hire an entity which has the needed expertise to complete the financial analysis. 66.1105(5)(i)3.3. The project plan specifies that, with regard to the total value of public infrastructure improvements in the district that occur after approval by the joint review board under par.

(7) (ak) to (au). 66.1105(5)(i)5.5. The project plan specifies that expenditures may be made only within the first half of the tax incremental district’s remaining life, based on the district’s termination date as calculated under sub. (7) (ak) to (au), except that expenditures may be made after this period if the expenditures are approved by a unanimous vote of the joint review board. No expenditure under this subdivision may be made later than the time during which an expenditure may be made under sub. (6) (am). 66.1105(5)(j)(j) Upon receiving a written application from the city clerk, in a form prescribed by the department of revenue, the department shall recalculate the base value of a tax incremental district affected by 2023 Wisconsin Act 12 to remove the value of the personal property. A request received under this paragraph no later than October 31 is effective in the year following the year in which the request is made. A request received after October 31 is effective in the 2nd year following the year in which the request is made. 66.1105(6)(6) Allocation of positive tax increments. 66.1105(6)(a)(a) If the joint review board approves the creation of the tax incremental district under sub.

The department of revenue may not authorize allocation of tax increments until it determines from timely evidence submitted by the city that each of the procedures and documents required under sub. (4) (d) to (f) has been completed and all related notices given in a timely manner. The department of revenue may authorize allocation of tax increments for any tax incremental district only if the city clerk and assessor annually submit to the department all required information, including the value of new construction less the value of improvements destroyed or removed, in a form and manner prescribed by the department, on or before the 2nd Monday in June. The facts supporting any document adopted or action taken to comply with sub. (4) (d) to (f) are not subject to review by the department of revenue under this paragraph. After the allocation of tax increments is authorized, the department of revenue shall annually authorize allocation of the tax increment to the city that created the district until the soonest of the following events: 66.1105(6)(a)1.1. The department of revenue receives a notice under sub. (8) and the notice has taken effect under sub. (8) (b). 66.1105(6)(a)2.2.
