Grants, tax credits still come from taxes paid

In the Aug. 20 story, “History Helper,” Jim Hoffman states that the renovation of the Paramount Theatre is requiring no local tax dollars. I don't quite understand. If the money didn't come from some form of tax dollars, where did it come from - a money tree?
All grants and tax credits come from tax paid. The dollars had to come from somewhere.
