UPDATE ON KOLBY SUBDIVISION
• Sheppard said he and Kolby did some research to determine the market value of the proposed residential lots on
the former BHS property.They decided that the market would support a price of $50k per lot. The development
estimate for phase 1 (31 lots) determined that a subsidy of $725k in TIF funding and a vacant lot tax rebate of
$45k would be necessary to achieve that price point. The developer hopes that construction of Phase 1 will
begin next summer. The property must be annexed to the City which may take 90 days. Covenants are being
drafted which will need approval of SICDC and City Council. The Phase 2 development (16 lots) is separate
and will be tied to a future acquisition due to the need for a sewage liftstation.
