Sage Crossing is located in the city’s tax-increment financing (TIF) district. Illinois law allows units of local governments the ability to designate areas within their jurisdiction as TIF districts. These specially designated districts are used by local governments as a way to incentivize economic growth by reimbursing the additional property tax revenues generated within the TIF for infrastructure improvements made by developers. Kirby Medical Center owns the Sage Crossing subdivision and has a TIF redevelopment agreement in place with the City of Monticello.

​

A growing community, Monticello has two interstate ramps that give direct access to travelers and commuters from I-72 into the community. Monticello has a very low property tax rate, which make the community ideal for any business or resident to call home.
