Council advances Prospect Village redevelopment cooperative agreements and CIDs
Summary
Staff described a redevelopment plan including a 135,000-sq-ft indoor sports complex, outdoor fields, park and up to 375 multifamily units; council advanced two cooperative-agreement ordinances for community improvement districts on first reading by unanimous votes.
City staff presented cooperative agreements tied to the Prospect Village redevelopment project and recommended council approval on first reading of two related ordinances.
Miss Haas said the project would include an approximately 135,000-square-foot indoor sports complex, two artificial-turf outdoor athletic fields, a public park, an anchor tenant, retail and hotel space totaling about 186,300 square feet, and about 375 multifamily housing units, plus associated streets, utilities and stormwater work. Two Community Improvement Districts (the Joplin Sports Facility CID and the Woodsonia Marketplace CID) would impose CID sales taxes to fund public improvements and repayment of bond proceeds, and the developer would be responsible for property acquisition, remediation and construction; staff recommended approval of the cooperative agreements on first reading.
Council moved to approve Council Bills 2026-504 (sports facility CID cooperative agreement) and 2026-505 (Woodsonia Marketplace CID cooperative agreement) on first reading and to advance both to second and third reading; motions carried 9–0.
What happens next: The bills were advanced to subsequent readings for final action; staff said bonds and CID revenues would fund the public improvements and the city and CID would jointly review and certify CID-funded costs before payment.
