Public Hearing – Approve Land Sale to Alatus LLC for Redevelopment of EDA owned Property and
Approval of TIF Agreement for Same
Chirpich stated the EDA is required to hold a public hearing to approve the sale of EDA owned land. The EDA
is also required to hold a public hearing for the final approval of tax increment financing agreements. The
redevelopment of the 3989 Central Avenue site includes both components. Therefore, to prepare for the land
th
sale and final TIF approval, staff published a notice to hold a June 8 public hearing. However, due to the
complex nature of the project, the final purchase, redevelopment, and TIF agreements are not ready for EDA
review and approval. Rather than cancel the public hearing and republish for a new hearing, staff would like to
convene the EDA to open the public hearing and continue the hearing to June 22.
