A TIF Over Progress
While
 the County budget director, Executive, and Council burn the late night 
oil sorting through the priorities of the next year’s budget, a small 
TIF occurs.  Our community is on the verge of a new renaissance, 
featuring community amenities that were out of reach to but a few.  Our 
new innovative housing options that will create an active community with
 workforce housing, bicycle trails and arts to uplift it’s citizens out 
of lifeless underutilized expanses.  The citizens have their faces 
pressed against the glass looking into a vision with a sign saying 
”coming soon”. There is little chance that our leaders would jeopardize 
this progress with a minor technical error.  The Cresent is on a roll! 
 We will not let it stop Columbia from becoming the City on the Hill 
that everyone envisioned.
