摘要
Texas allows cities to create economic development corporations that are funded using local sales tax revenues. Over time, many cities have used these corporations to fund a broad range of economic development projects. This study examines whether these corporations can be linked to any change in employment and/or unemployment in the adopting cities. Using a panel of data for Texas cities, there is limited evidence for an association between corporation adoption and labor market conditions.
