==History==
Dearborn Heights was incorporated from the two discontinuous sections of '''Dearborn Township''' and a quarter-mile connecting strip of land from the village of [[Inkster, Michigan|Inkster]].  Incorporation petitions were filed on Friday, March 4, 1960, while Inkster officials delivered their petitions for incorporation on Monday, March 7, 1960.  The residents approved Dearborn Heights' incorporation on an election held June 20, 1960, which is the official date of incorporation. [[Inkster, Michigan|Inkster]], a predominantly black community, filed a lawsuit, claiming that the shape of Dearborn Heights reflected a racial [[gerrymander]].  The [[Michigan Supreme Court]] held that Inkster had failed to demonstrate any legally cognizable harm and dismissed the lawsuit.<ref>Taylor v.

TIFA remains established to continue efforts in elevating the standard of living for all residents of the district.{{citation needed|date=April 2020}}

'''Property availability list'''<br />A property availability list (PAL) is regularly updated on the TIFA website.

'''Recent programs'''<br />The Business Improvement Program was launched in June 2008. It is a grant program designed to assist business owners in the TIFA district who wish to repair structural or exterior deterioration of their buildings.
