Research notes

State-framework overlay — not a direct zoning preemption, but TIF is the dominant Missouri redevelopment subsidy mechanism precisely because the Hancock Amendment (Mo. Const. Art. X §22(a)) makes impact fees Hancock-vulnerable and structurally weak. preemptions.md captures the Hancock constraint and notes that 'capital-improvement funding comes from … TIF / CID / TDD special districts — not from impact fees.' The §99.843 greenfield restriction and §99.847 floodplain restriction are Missouri-specific design features distinguishing MO TIF from neighboring-state TIF regimes. Companion programs: Mo. Rev. Stat. ch. 67 §§67.1421 et seq. (Community Improvement Districts / CID); Mo. Rev. Stat. §§238.200–238.275 (Transportation Development Districts / TDD); Mo. Rev. Stat. §§353 et seq. (Urban Redevelopment Corporations / Chapter 353). The Kansas City Stockyards Historic District and St. Louis CBD have been frequent TIF designations.
