TID No. 48 was amended in 2005 by adoption of File No. 041514 to amend the boundary of the district, and it was amended again in 2011 by adoption of File No. 101297 to fund public infrastructure in the former freeway corridor to promote the redevelopment of the vacant parcels, including providing funding for The North End redevelopment project.
