The Tax Increment Finance Reporting Act of 2012 established new urban renewal and tax increment financing (TIF) reporting requirements for counties, cities, and rural improvement zones in Iowa with urban renewal areas in place during FY 2012. This dataset provides a financial summary of urban renewal reports submitted by counties, cities and rural improvement zones submitted annually beginning with Fiscal Year 2012. Tax increment financing is a financing mechanism for urban renewal. It involves dividing the property taxes paid from property within a designated area between the traditional taxing authorities (counties, cities, schools, etc.) and the taxing authority that created the TIF area.

The reports contain a wealth of information about city finances such as independent auditor's reports, statements of revenues and expenditures, net assets, property tax levies as well as comparative statistical charts. The text is searchable by keyword. In 2014 the City Archives initiated a multi-year effort to digitize permanent records housed at the archives. Currently or soon to be available are searchable digital files containing Tax Assessor Filed Cards, house directories, financial reports, atlas maps, as well as a large collection of historical photos.
