(a) Identification of the parties to the local participation agreement and the duties and responsibilities of each entity under the agreement; (b) Specific identification of the incremental revenues released or pledged, or wage assessments pledged by type of tax by each taxing district; (c) The anticipated benefit to be received by each taxing district for the release or pledge, including:
1. A detailed summary of old revenues collected and projected new
revenues for each taxing district on an annual basis for the term of the
local participation agreement; and 2. The maximum amount of incremental revenue to be paid by each taxing
district and the maximum number of years the payment will be effective; (d) A detailed description of the development area, including a legal description of the parcels included in the development area; (e) A description of each proposed project that is the subject of a local participation agreement, including an estimate of the costs of construction,

procedure for depositing incremental revenues and other pledged amounts into
the special fund; (g) Terms of default and remedies, provided that no remedy shall permit the withholding by any party to the local participation agreement of any
incremental revenues pledged to the special fund if increment bonds are
outstanding that are secured by a pledge of those incremental revenues; (h) The commencement date, activation date, and termination date; and
(i) Any other provisions not inconsistent with KRS 65.7041 to 65.7083 deemed necessary or appropriate by the parties to the agreement.
