Commission Meeting Date: May 14, 2024 Title: Request to Establish a Commercial
Rehabilitation District, West Urban Properties,

Submitted by: Jake Eckholm, Development Department: Economic Development
Services Director
Brief Summary:
Staff is requesting consideration for the establishment of a Commercial Rehabilitation District (PA 210)
to support further development at 1095 Third Street by West Urban Properties.
Detailed Summary & Background:
Last year, West Urban Properties was granted an option to redevelop a city-owned property into a
mixed-use apartment project with attached townhomes on Houston Street. City staff have been
actively collaborating with them on securing a grant to conduct environmental due diligence,
finalizing a purchase and development agreement, and exploring appropriate tax incentives to
support the financial viability of the project.
We are now nearing the finalization of the project terms and are requesting the commission's
consideration in establishing a PA 210 District to further facilitate this development.
