What’s been shown in studies is that groceries stores are far healthier than corner stores. That leads me to either incentivizing the development of full groceries or other fresh food outlets in these communities (I’m not a tax professional or lawyer or anything so I can’t speak to how specifically to do so), or collective/government action that either creates spaces for such or runs such (as in, creating more food markets (not food halls) and keeping those spaces well-funded and renovated, or running grocery stores).

Personally I would prefer collective solutions that promote community and potentially keep money in the community/region rather than some TIFs for national/international chains, but again I’m not an expert. But I have seen both expansion/reinforcement of city markets and establishing government-run groceries in the most affected communities as solutions before from advocates and officials so it’s not a wild idea.
