The Lansing City Council voted unanimously to accept a petition to form a Community Improvement District (CID) for Lansing Town Center and adopted resolution B 9 20 25 to set a public hearing on the proposal for Nov. 6, 2025.

The proposed CID would cover roughly 15.7 acres and, if created after subsequent hearings and approvals, would permit a 1% CID sales tax on sales inside the district. City staff described the proposed financing as "pay as you go," noting revenue would only be generated if the developer constructs the project and associated taxable sales occur.

A developer representative participated remotely and told the council the project has been a multi‑year effort and he looks forward to presenting additional details at later meetings. City staff noted similar incentives already exist in Leavenworth County, including at a Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealership, and characterized the CID as a common local economic development tool.

Council members asked no substantive questions at the time; the council scheduled the Nov. 6 public hearing to allow public comment and a fuller presentation before any final decision. No concessions, tax rates beyond the proposed 1% CID rate, or incentive agreements were approved at this meeting.
