The Woodson Elementary School playground in Grand Boulevard will be replaced through $900,000 in Tax Increment Financing (TIF) assistance approved by City Council today.
Funding for the project at 4414 S. Evans Ave. will be provided through the 43rd/Cottage Grove TIF District. TIF will cover the entirety of project costs.
