State law grants the Redevelopment Commission the authority to issue bonds, to raise funds to carry out programs and create a property tax levy to retire bonds. The debts incurred by the Redevelopment Commission are subject to City Council review and Indiana Code 36-1-15, which limits the debt a municipality may incur. The Jeffersonville Department of Redevelopment manages the city's Tax Increment Finance Districts and its Certified Technology Park finances. The Department of Redevelopment's staff also manages the city's Urban Enterprise Zones on behalf of the Jeffersonville Urban Enterprise Association and the city's Revolving Loan Fund on behalf of the Revolving Loan Committee, as a dedicated full-time staff is not required for those programs. The Department of Redevelopment has also initiated several business development programs, including Grow Jeffersonville. Department of Redevelopment Staff
