FY 2025 – 2026 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
MIDWEST CITY URBAN RENEWAL AUTHORITY (“URA”)
Summary
We began FY 2025 – 2026 with a fund balance of $2,707,573.94 and finished the year with a net
balance of $2,280,203.39, which included encumbrances totaling $107,409.99. Most expenses were for
professional services and other tasks relative to Project “Sunshine,” the demolition, clearing and
redevelopment of the former Heritage Park Mall (“HPM”).
Plans for HPM are moving forward as we have tentatively selected construction manager, A.C.
Owen, to coordinate the work. HPM Owners now have less than two months to clear all personal
belongings from the site while we negotiate a contract with A.C. Owen.
Once a contract is finalized, A.C. Owen will enlist the help an environmental testing company to
survey the mall for hazardous materials. A report detailing those findings will be made available to
demolition contractors. A.C. Owen will bid the job as the project manager, and Staff feels the $2.28 in
reserves is plenty to accommodate our plans provided no hazardous materials are found by the
environmental contractors.
Revenues
For FY 2025 – 2026, the Finance Department reported the URA’s total revenues as $139,739.18.
This included our share of the annual rent collected from Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers, 2800 S Air
Depot BL, ($90,000) and Taco Bell, 150 Brett DR, ($50,000) as part of the STC IV Development
Agreement. This agreement provides for an equal split of the net proceeds from Participation Rent between
STC IV LLC, a private entity, and the URA. Our net yield was $58,500.00, which is noted on the “General
Government” line on the Revenue Report on Line 341. The URA also captured $81,239.18 in interest
revenues based on the $2.28 million balance remaining in its coiffures from previous years. There were
no additional transfers into the URA account from other sources.
Expenses & Encumbrances
In FY 2025 – 2026, the URA paid out a total of $47,180.51 of the $139,551.00 budgeted for
Administrative & Professional Services. These funds were spent on a variety of activities related to Project
Sunshine. We ended the year with a total of $107,409.99 that remain encumbered.
Most of the encumbrances were likely canceled in early July, but we did keep the following
purchase orders open as they had already been assigned for work relative to the demolition of the former
Whataburger, 6525 E Reno AV:
Midwest Wrecking $61,480.00 Demolition, clearing of 6525 E Reno AV
Terracon Consultants $ 2,200.00 NESHAP testing for 6525 E Reno AV
Page 7 of 12
The remaining $15,040.00 was encumbered for Capital Outlay projects related to utility
disconnects, relocations etc.
Attached to this report, please find financial statements setting forth the Authority’s assets, liabilities,
and fund balance as of June 30, 2026.
