MOTION CARRIED
RES. NO. 2020-01
The Board discussed information from the City Assessor showing LDDA Taxable value growth
since 2014 While there has been growth, there are pending Tax Tribunal appeals that may result in flat
or very little growth for 2020. It is probably not justified to propose a Plan Amendment in the 2019
calendar year for implementation in 2020.
The Board discussed development occurring in the District. Ted Dearing described the
City’s lease agreement with a sign company for creation of an electronic bill board near the water tower
on Beckley Road. The City plans on using the lease revenue for projects with the LDDA District.
There being no other business, the meeting adjourned at 5:15pm
