Thunder Valley, LLC Development Agreement

Description

A $12 million apartment development with 72 rental units gets ten years of tax abatement on 73% of the increased assessed value, plus a city-funded temporary sanitary sewer solution until the developer's permanent system is permitted.

Impact summary

Adds 72 rental units to the housing stock but ignited a broader debate over whether market-rate incentives have run their course.
