Eagle Urban Renewal approves downtown beautification and small parking-stripe project
Summary
Council reported that the Eagle Urban Renewal Agency voted to stripe parking on Old State Street (~$3,500) and to fund a $508,000 downtown beautification project; the agency is exploring a letter of interest to buy the Jackson House property from the city.
Councilmembers reported actions taken by the Eagle Urban Renewal Agency that morning: a small parking-striping contract for about $3,500 on Old State Street to ease parking, and approval to pursue $508,000 in spending for a downtown beautification project along State Street.
A council member (speaker 6) told the council the beautification work would primarily affect downtown businesses and is intended to mitigate impacts from the traffic mobility project. The Urban Renewal Agency also instructed staff to move forward with developing a letter of interest to explore purchasing the Jackson House property from the city; councilmembers said staff would return with more details if and when negotiations progress.
