Relationship To Strategic Plan:
2024 Goals, Goal II: Diverse and Viable Economy is achieved through the locating of a new business in the City.
Executive Summary:
The property in question is located near the edge of the City's downtown area, near the Martin Luther King Jr. Freeway/Highway 87. The owner proposes to locate a transfer recycling center at the location. This facility will divert metal, plastics, aggregate, wood, cardboard, carpet, and drywall from construction sites.
Background:
This property is just over five-acres and currently has several large vacant buildings and one small vacant building on it. Some of the existing buildings are dilapidated. One building has suffered major fire damage and another building has a missing roof and some walls. This property will require a major mitigation. A business on this property should greatly improve the aesthetics and safety issues that are currently present.
