WATERVILLE The City Council on Tuesday was not ready to take a final vote on a plan to remove three Colby College properties downtown from the current downtown tax increment financing district and place them in a new TIF district, instead voting to postpone a decision to the next council meeting Feb. 2.
New City Manager Steve Daly said the city is trying to identify what the revenues from a new TIF district may be used for and is working with an expert the city has used for years to make sure that when the TIF request is sent to the state, the city has everything in order.
