New ARENA as part of entertainment District

[TINY]

The tif district is all that corridor including target, crest, hotels, the main event, doctors offices…. This is not creating a new district just for the stadium project. Technically there was already a plan for that section with condos and more shopping areas, they just updated it to include the stadium.

I thought the TIF district is only referencing the new builds on the open field? Only sales tax generated from this area alone would go toward the debt.

My understanding is adding to original tif already created. I think that was how they got around going to vote of the people in first place. I definitely could be wrong though.

generally speaking TIF districts don't require a vote of the people ..

Interesting. I just assumed it was part of Same one. You now have a Tif district inside a tif district. Was doing sone research and same location was proposed for the Warren and Costco at one time. Others in Norman as well. Both eventually went to Moore.
