Urban Renewal Documents and Information
A Conditions Survey and Urban Renewal Plan were adopted by the City Council at their December 5, 2006 meeting. In addition, the Revitalization Commission has signed a Cooperation Agreement with the City Council outlining each entity's role and authority and has entered into an intergovernmental agreement with Boulder County.
In addition, in 2008 the City had a Market, Feasibility, and Financing Study completed for the area.
There are three critical components of urban renewal:
-
Initially, the City Council must make a determination that the proposed project area is blighted;
-
An urban renewal plan must be prepared and approved; and
-
Financing options for the proposed projects need to be carefully evaluated within the context of the proposed area's revenue projections.
The Louisville Revitalization Commission is largely in response to the Highway 42 Revitalization Project that anticipates potential financing options for proposed public improvements within the project area, specifically Tax Increment Financing. Frequently Asked Questions About Urban Renewal.
550 S. McCaslin Blvd. Urban Renewal
On September 1, 2015, the Louisville City Council approved an Urban Renewal Plan for 550 S. McCaslin Blvd. formerly the Louisville Sam's Club location. The Sam's Club closed in January 2010 and has not been used as a retail property since. The 13 acre parcel and 127,000 square foot building is a critical retail property for the McCaslin / Centennial Valley area. The Urban Renewal Plan was approved to make tools available to address challenges found that impair the full utilization of the property.
