Understand I’ve had so many look down the end of their nose at me for the short fall in the TIF.

Making this a bark park you will know the feeling.

As a friend.

I’ve got NO idea – I can’t get the guy to even respond to a rent request ??

I will send under separate email ???

---- my knee jerk answer his has NO idea the state of retail leasing??

He should be taking % rent only leases and getting retail tenants to generate sale tax  in to pay down the TIF Bonds.

Lou McGinnis is rally just the manager on behalf of the guy founded 5-hour energy – I got that data from the Broker that did not Disclose the TIF development agreement to Lou.

Karen and Brenden

This project effects your districts the most. It is a shame we have a short fall and the retail never caught fire. That was the toughest leasing job I ever had.

Now the City needs to step up and make it right.

This is in your hands to fix the short fall. This will be a step in the right direction. We need to do more.

I suggest we create a taxing district CID that retires with the bonds are paid off. Include the shopping center at 21^st and Washburn too. Howard Paul sold the center to Washburn University and they benefit the most from the College Hill development overall. 80% of the tenants are Washburn students.

We must grow the tax base and retire the bonds.

Are you going to assign the development agreement to the new owner?

Read section Seven.

I do not understand how the City can even move forward with zoning shovel ready land assembled with TIF bond money to implement a Bark Park?

If the current owner does not want to build this land should be offered to the public. (see building J amendment – developer is in default) The new owner should have a short fuse to build on the land. It can’t go to the dogs.

Why would the TIF district not needed to be amended and approved by 501 and the County taxing districts?

We need the Tax base $$$$’s.

The property has a new owner and is bound by the development agreement even thought the seller did not inform them of the agreement.

Bill

Thanks so much. It would be very helpful if you could share the original development agreement to form the TIF district. CBRE should have disclosed this data with the Buyer during the due diligence phase of the acquisition.

The TIF bonds have a $310 short fall annually. We need to create as many way to grow the tax base in the district. Building on the “J” site would be a good start. Those 8 lots are ready to go.

Thanks for your help bill.

Thanks

Lew,

Henry McClure is a Topeka broker/businessman, and was part of our College Hill ownership group in the early years. He remains active in Topeka and is very familiar with the College Hill area. He contacted me, and said he would like to talk to you about the vacant lot on the east side of Lane.

So I’ve made the email introduction!

Hope all is well with you……….
