Dorchester County Council has advanced a tax increment financing (TIF) plan for the Festival Centre Redevelopment Project. The initiative could provide approximately $12 million to Dorchester District Two for improvements at and around Fort Dorchester High School. While the first reading is approved, county and school district leaders are still finalizing financial details and negotiating agreements to facilitate the project, which aims to boost local growth and community quality of life.
