Classic violation of the statistical axiom, "Correlation does not imply causation". In other words, they are saying that TIF money has caused all this private development and increased property value but cannont show any direct causation. They have no way of knowing if all that would have happened with or without TIF, and it is disingenuous to claim otherwise, as they always do.
