2.61.3.1                 ISSUING AGENCY:  State Board of Finance, 181 Bataan Memorial Building, Santa Fe, NM.

[2.61.3.1 NMAC - N, 10/15/2008]

 

2.61.3.2                 SCOPE:  Tax increment development districts formed pursuant to the Tax Increment for Development Act with respect to the state’s dedication of a portion of its gross receipts tax increment.

[2.61.3.2 NMAC - N, 10/15/2008]

 

2.61.3.3                 STATUTORY AUTHORITY:  Section 5-15-2 (A) NMSA 1978 states that the purpose of the Tax Increment for Development Act is to create a mechanism for providing gross receipts tax financing and property tax financing for public infrastructure for the purpose of supporting economic development and job creation.  Section 5-15-15 (F) NMSA 1978 provides that the state board of finance, upon review of the applicable tax increment development plan, may find that dedication of a portion of the gross receipts tax increment for the purpose of securing gross receipts tax increment bonds is reasonable and in the best interest of the state and that the use of the state gross receipts tax is likely to stimulate the creation of jobs, economic opportunities and general revenue for the state through the addition of new businesses to the state and the expansion of existing businesses within the state. Section 5-15-15 (F) NMSA 1978 limits the dedication to not more than seventy-five percent (75%) of the gross receipts tax increment attributable to the imposition of the state gross receipts tax within the district.  Section 5-15-25.2 NMSA 1978 states that the state board of finance may approve the revision of the base year used to determine a district’s gross receipts tax increment once during the lifetime of the district, if the revised year is a calendar year that is completed, if no gross receipts tax increment bonds attributable to the district have been issued, if there is no unresolved objection to the revision by the developer or by a local government that has dedicated a tax increment to the district, and upon a finding that the revision is reasonable and in the best interest of the state.

2.61.3.8                 BASES FOR DEDICATION OF A PORTION OF THE STATE’S INCREMENT AND REVISION OF BASE YEAR:  In determining whether it can make the findings required for dedication of up to seventy-five percent (75%) of the state’s increment and what percentage of the state’s increment may be dedicated or for approval of the revision of a district’s base year the board will:

                A.            evaluate whether the project can occur in substantially the same form if the state’s increment is not obtained or, in the case of a request for approval of a revised base year, if the base year is not revised;

                B.            determine that the following additional criteria are met:

                                (1)           the project is expected to have a positive net revenue impact on the state general fund over a period of time approximately equal to the life of the bonds when calculated as described in this rule;

                                (2)           the project is expected to generate new jobs and economic opportunities;

                                (3)           the project incorporates adequate planning and resource allocation for workforce housing and schools;

                                (4)           the portion of the state’s increment requested is reasonable and fully justified by the analysis; and

                                (5)           the developer has a proven record for success with similar developments; and

                C.            consider these additional factors as part of the determination whether the use of the state’s increment is reasonable and in the best interest of the state:

                                (1)           the type of development (e.g. greenfield, revitalization, or within a recognized public policy priority);

                                (2)           the anticipated increase in general fund tax revenue and employment within the district as a result of companies moving into the state (companies new to New Mexico);

                                (3)           the anticipated increase in general fund tax revenue and employment within the district as a result of growth of firms currently doing business in New Mexico;

                                (4)           the attributes of employment generated within the district, the nature of the industry, and benefits to the community and the state;

                                (5)           the ratio of local government to state government contribution, expressed both in terms of absolute dollars contributed toward infrastructure and in terms of the relative percentage of available gross receipts and property tax revenues dedicated to bond repayment;

                                (6)           the impacts on surrounding or non-participating government entities;

                                (7)           the ratio of private to public investment;

                                (8)           the use of innovative planning and development techniques;

                                (9)           the application of environmentally protective technologies, energy and water efficiencies and sustainable development elements in the project, including all residential, commercial, industrial and government structures;

                                (10)         the maximum maturity of the bonds is reasonable and fully justified by the analysis;

                                (11)         the availability of water and water rights to support the planned community;

                                (12)         the proposed governance structure of the district, including the composition of the board and the method of selection; and

                                (13)         the provision of community facilities, such as senior centers, and non traditional housing to address various social needs such as homelessness and domestic violence and other community benefits.

                                (2)           Prior to initiating the preparation of an application, a developer is encouraged to schedule a “pre-application” conference to discuss the project and proposed methodology with board staff and the economic analysis unit of the department of finance and administration.

                                (3)           The board, in its discretion, may waive certain requirements included in the rule when the application demonstrates why it is in the best interest of the state to do so.

                C.            Staff methodology.  The board will evaluate the project as a whole and evaluate each district on a stand alone basis. The board will utilize the services of the department of finance and administration economic analysis unit and may seek the assistance of an independent economic consultant to evaluate each request.
