Plain City Council · October 14, 2025

Summary

Staff told council the community reinvestment area (CRA) agreement for 251 West Main Street (formerly the Rialto Theater) has transferred to one owner and requested approval to extend the completion deadline to July 1, 2026; council placed the item on the agenda as Resolution 51‑25.

City staff reported that the CRA agreement for 251 West Main Street, the former Rialto Theater, has recently transferred to a single owner and that no tax abatements have yet been claimed under the agreement. Staff said the new owner requests an extension to the completion deadline and that council authority allows a transfer of CRA agreements with approval. Staff proposed moving the completion date from the previous July 1, 2024 deadline to July 1, 2026.

Council recorded the item on the agenda as Resolution 51‑25 and placed it for consideration; the transcript indicates staff answered clarifying questions about whether the transfer would reset the completion deadline and confirmed the new date is intended to provide additional time for project start and progress.
