Oshkosh RDA recommends certification of Sawdust District redevelopment plan
Summary
The Oshkosh Redevelopment Authority recommended certification of the Sawdust District redevelopment area project plan, a statutory step that enables enforcement of project standards; the board voted unanimously to forward the certification to city council.
The Oshkosh Redevelopment Authority voted unanimously to recommend certification of the Sawdust District redevelopment area project plan, a staff member told the board. Certification is the statutory step that gives the RDA authority to implement the project plan and to require new construction be compatible with that plan.
Staff explained the certification limits certain actions on private property that would be out of compliance while allowing routine maintenance and upkeep. A board member moved to approve agenda item 24-07 and another seconded; after brief procedural questions about whether certifications expire and what subsequent council steps remain, the board completed a roll call and recorded affirmative votes from the members present.
Why it matters: Certification is the final local administrative action required to put a redevelopment plan into effect at the RDA level and is the step that allows staff to ensure future construction aligns with the RDA's plan. Staff said the certification does not typically expire and that certified plans proceed to the city council as part of the approval process.
What happened next: With the board’s recommendation, staff will transmit the certification to the city council for the next step in the review and adoption process.
