It is essentially a tax-exempt financing mechanism used for the installation of public infrastructure.  The Metro Districts issue debt to pay for the public infrastructure, which debt is repaid by property taxes levied within the Metro Districts’ boundaries.  Public infrastructure includes streets, water, sewer, storm drainage, parks, trails, and other similar improvements.[/minti_toggle][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]
