Everything You Need to Get Moving
The Bargersville Economic Development team supports businesses from ideation to execution — providing one-on-one guidance, development support, and access to local resources that make it easier to start, expand, or relocate your business here.
We navigate zoning and permitting, and focus on what moves projects forward: clear communication, trusted relationships, and hands-on support at every stage. We navigate zoning and permitting, connect businesses with infrastructure and workforce resources, and serve as a consistent point of contact throughout the development process.
Our economic development staff is here to help businesses that want to grow in Bargersville. We offer a real partnership that goes beyond permits and paperwork. Our municipal leadership is committed to pro-business policies, long-range planning, and thoughtful development that makes this community worth investing in.
Economic Development Tools
Bargersville offers a clear framework considering economic development opportunities and incentives. We will work directly with you to identify tools that may apply to your project.
Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) is one of Indiana's most effective economic development tools — directing future property tax revenue growth within a defined area back into infrastructure, development, and public improvements that make investment possible. Bargersville contemplates the use of TIF districts to attract capital investment and enable the kind of sustainable growth that benefits the entire community.
How TIF Works
When new development increases property values within a TIF district, the additional tax revenue generated — the "increment" — goes back into the TIF district to fund infrastructure, site preparation, and development support. For businesses and developers, this can mean critical public investments are already in place, or can be made possible, as part of your project.
Property Tax Abatement
This tool allows a company to phase-in its property tax bill over a period of up to 10 years. In the first year. the tax deduction is 100 percent and declines by a set percentage each year.
How It Works
A request is made before construction starts. A company must be located within an Economic Revitalization Area (ERA) to receive a tax abatement. A company must request such designation if not located within an ERA. Tax abatement is administered according to Indiana Code 6-1.1-12.1-1.
Bonds
Taxable and tax-exempt bonds may be used for building construction costs.
