Massillon is mulling a tax incentive for new 78-home development
This story was updated to add new information. MASSILLON – A development group is asking for a tax deal for a new housing project on the west side. Frontier Land Group is seeking a 10-year, 75% property tax exemption to help with a new 78-home subdivision — dubbed Alpha Pointe — on 20 acres along Lanedale Avenue NW and Evangel Avenue NW. City Council members discussed the proposal for about 40 minutes during its Sept. 14 work session. If approved by council, Frontier Land would save approximately $1.5 million over 10 years via an incentive district TIF, or tax increment financing, according to Development Director Ted Herncane, who said infrastructure costs are estimated at $4 million to build new roads and run utility and sanitary-sewer lines.

Example uses of the funds could be a streetlight or equipment purchase. Tax Increment Financing, or TIF, serves as an economic development tool for cities to capture property tax revenue from business improvements, channeling it for infrastructure and commercial projects.
