AGENDA ITEM TITLE:
Consider approval of a recommendation to City Council to lift the restrictions as outlined in the Urban Renewal Plan, Muskogee Downtown Revitalization and Neighborhood Development Project, as amended April 1984, in relation to Arrowhead Mall, or take other necessary action. (Katrina Bodenhamer)
BACKGROUND:
In April of 1984, an Urban Renewal Plan was developed titled the Muskogee Downtown Revitalization and Neighborhood Development Project. This Plan outlined certain boundaries, restrictions and permitted uses for the urban renewal area. There were restrictions placed on the Arrowhead Mall property which required that it be maintained as a regional shopping mall with associated parking. Numerous malls across the United States are vacant and not being used for their original intended purpose. In lifting these restrictions established in 1984, the Arrowhead Mall may be able to convert its space to a more modern, functioning place of business, whether that is in the form of offices, downtown apartments, or other avenues which generate sales tax or downtown foot traffic.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Recommend lifting the URA Arrowhead Mall restrictions to City Council.
