The purpose of the Project Plan is to help the City achieve development objectives by authorizing the appropriate and necessary public support and assistance for development while enhancing the area. This action was instrumental in launching Owasso's Redbud District toward redeveloping and revitalizing Owasso's downtown. Since approval of the Tax Increment Finance, two local developers have invested over $16 million, existing businesses have experienced increased revenues, and the City constructed a $2.3 million festival park creating a space for events, gatherings, recreation, and more. In the past eighteen (18) months, interest in development in the Redbud District has decelerated. Due to the public health emergency posed by the spread of COVID -19 throughout Oklahoma and the countermeasures and restrictions put in place to manage that emergency, developers, and development projects have experienced delays. Additionally, the construction of Redbud Festival Park has also contributed to those delays in development projects. PROPOSED RESOLUTION FOR AMENDING THE PROJECT PLAN: In the interest of continuing to attract development projects in Owasso's Redbud District, it would be consistent with the purpose and objectives of the Owasso Redbud District Project Plan to extend the dates of completion of construction relevant to Development Project Assistance in Section III (A) (5) of the Policy Guide by a period of two (2) years to account for these delays and to promote the continued implementation of the Project Plan and development within the Project Area. Section Four of Resolution 2017 -01, approving the project plan, granted City staff authority to take necessary or appropriate actions, including minor amendments and revisions to the Policy Guide for City Council approval. The two -year extensions are proposed in the attached Resolution. For projects completed by June 30, 2023, (currently June 30, 2021,) the maximum amount of assistance in development financing that the developer may receive is 12% of hard costs of the construction of improvements on the developer's property. For projects completed between July 1, 2023 (currently July 1, 2021)and June 30, 2027, (currently June 30, 2025) the maximum amount of assistance in development financing that the developer may receive is 10% of hard costs of the construction of improvements on the developer's property. For projects completed between July 1, 2027, (currently July 1, 2025) and June 30, 2031, (currently June 30, 2029) the maximum amount of assistance in development financing that the developer may receive is 8% of hard costs of the construction of improvements on the developer's property. For projects completed Amendment TIF Page 2 after June 30, 2031, (currently June 30, 2029) through the end of the life of the Increment District, the maximum amount of assistance in development financing that the developer may receive is 6% of hard costs of the construction of improvements on the developer's property. The issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy by the City shall determine project completion.

Introduction The City of Owasso, Oklahoma ( "City "), consistent with the Oklahoma Local Development Act, 62 O.S. §850, et seq., on December 20, 2016, through the adoption of Ordinance 1093, approved the Owasso Redbud District Project Plan ( "Project Plan ") and established Increment District No. 1, City of Owasso ( "Increment District "). The goal of the Project Plan is to develop the area surrounding Main Street, known as the Redbud District, achieve the City's development objectives, improve the quality of life for its citizens, stimulate private investment, and enhance the tax base. The Increment District allows the City to support public and private projects using incremental growth in property and sales taxes. The Project Plan authorizes the allocation of incremental revenues to a special fund to be used to pay authorized Project Costs, including public infrastructure, facilities, and improvements, and assistance in development financing. The Project Plan defines the boundaries of the Project Area and the Increment District. The Increment District is the area where incremental revenues generated by new development are collected. The Project Area is the area where those incremental revenues can be spent. The Project Area and Increment District are coextensive and are depicted in Exhibit A. This Policy Guide outlines the goals and objectives of the Project Plan and Increment District, and describes generally how assistance in development financing may be provided by allocation of tax increment revenues to assist development projects, small businesses, and job generation projects. Nothing contained in this Policy Guide binds or obligates the City or the Owasso Public Works Authority (OPWA). Should the provisions of a development agreement or contract approved by the City Council or the OPWA deviate from the provisions of the Policy Guide, the development agreement or contract will control. II. Objectives of the Project Plan The goal of the Project Plan is to encourage development of the City's original downtown, now known as the Redbud District, into a special and unique place within the City; a place for residents and visitors to live, work, shop, and play. The Increment District will support public and private projects. The City's objectives include: • Achieve the development goals and objectives for the Redbud District contained in the Downtown Master Plan, the Downtown Overlay District Plan, and the GrOwasso 2030 Land Use Master Plan. • To preserve and enhance the tax base and make possible investment, development, and economic growth that would otherwise be difficult without the project and the apportionment of incremental ad valorem and sales tax revenues. • To support the creation of attractive, high - quality, and viable mixed -use developments to draw residents and visitors. 1 • Where appropriate, to support the development, improvement, and /or expansion of light industry to increase employment. • To encourage existing property and business owners in the Redbud District to invest, and to attract new investment and business to the Project Area. • To provide start -up and incubator space to new and expanding businesses and to promote small- business - friendly opportunities for innovation and collaboration in the Project Area. • To stimulate and promote the Redbud District as a walkable, vibrant destination. • To provide a public benefit through the construction of public infrastructure and improvements to allow for development to occur in the area. All ad valorem and sales tax increment generated in the Increment District is available to (1) reimburse the City or other public entities for expenditures made towards Public Infrastructure, Facilities, and Improvements, (2) provide assistance in development financing through Development Project Assistance, Small Business Enhancements, and Employment Generation Assistance, and (3) pay Implementation and Administration. The City has a strong preference for utilizing incremental revenues for public infrastructure and improvements, including those aspects of private developments that provide a public benefit through the creation or enhancement of the public space, building facade, or street front presence, and encouragement of walkability and access throughout the Project Area.

Applicant: Name (Print) Signature Date April 4, 2017 - -so TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alexa Beemer City Planner SUBJECT: Annexation (OA 21 -03) and Rezoning (OZ 21 -04) - Bible Church of Owasso DATE: June 4, 2021 BACKGROUND: The Community Development Department received a request for the annexation and rezoning of property located at 11121 North 129th East Avenue. The subject property is composed of approximately 9.95 acres of land and is currently zoned Agriculture (AG) in Tulsa County. Upon annexation, the applicant is requesting the property be brought into Owasso City limits as Residential Single - Family High Density (RS -3) via an accompanying rezoning request (OZ 21 -04). SURROUNDING LAND USE: Direction Zoning Use Land Use Plan Jurisdiction Residential Single-Family High Density RS -3 Residential Single - Residential Proposed Use Religious Institution North Family High Density Residential Residential City of Owasso Washington County Rural Water District #3 RS -3 Storm Siren Fee ($50,00 per acre) Ranch Creek Interceptor Payback ($610.33 per acre) Garrett- Morrow Sanitary Assessment 1$3.1 46 er acre South Agriculture (AG) Agriculture Transitional Tulsa County Residential Single - East Family High Density Residential Residential City of Owasso RS -3 West Agriculture (AG) Rural Residential Residential Tulsa County SUBJECT PROPERTY /PROJECT DATA: Property Size 9.95 acres +/- Current Zoning Agriculture AG in Tulsa Count Proposed Zoning Upon Annexation Residential Single-Family High Density RS -3 Land Use Master Plan Residential Proposed Use Religious Institution Within PUD?

The applicant is requesting the property be assigned the RS -3 zoning designation upon annexation, via a concurrent rezoning request (OZ 21 -04). Typically, property is annexed either under AG zoning or as the County's corresponding zoning designation as per the Owasso Zoning Code. OA 21 -03, OZ 21 -04 Page 2 However, an applicant may request an alternate zoning if said zoning corresponds to the Land Use Master Plan and is advertised in accordance with statutory requirements. In this case, the GrOwasso 2030 Land Use Master Plan identifies the subject property for future Residential land uses. Therefore, assigning a zoning of RS -3 to the property upon annexation is appropriate. The subject property is currently undeveloped and unplatted. The applicant intends to construct a religious institution on the property, which will require the applicant to secure a Specific Use Permit (SUP), as religious institutions are not allowed by -right in an RS -3 zoning district. The applicant is aware of this requirement, and has indicated they intend to submit a request for an SUP in the coming months. This annexation and rezoning process is just the first step in the overall development process. The GrOwasso 2030 Land Use Master Plan identifies the subject property for future residential uses, so the requested zoning of RS -3 is appropriate. Further, while religious institutions are not usually allowed in areas identified for future residential uses, this proposed use may be deemed appropriate for this location if the correct controls are utilized with an SUP. Because the applicant does intend to secure an SUP on this property, Staff has determined that the proposed use of a religious institution should indeed be compatible with surrounding existing and future land uses. The City of Owasso will provide police, fire, ambulance, and sanitary sewer services to the property upon annexation. Washington County Rural Water District #3 will provide water services to this property. Any future development that occurs on the subject property must adhere to all Owasso subdivision, zoning, and engineering requirements. PLANNING COMMISSION: The Owasso Planning Commission will consider this item at their regular meeting on June 7, 2021.

In accordance with the Budget Act, all funds of the City with revenues and expenditures are required to have annual budgets. Expenditures may not legally exceed the appropriation or budget within a department or a fund. The City Manager has the authority to transfer appropriations between line items within a department or to transfer appropriations between departments within the same fund. An increase in total appropriations in a fund requires City Council approval. The Trust Authorities, Owasso Public Works Authority (OPWA) and Owasso Public Golf Authority (OPGA), are required to prepare an annual budget and submit a copy to the City as beneficiary of the trust. However, there are no further requirements such as a legal restriction on spending. GENERAL FUND SALES TAX REVENUE AND TRANSFER: Under the pledged revenue requirements of the OPWA bond indentures, the City transfers three cents of its sales tax collections to the OPWA Fund. The OPWA then transfers two cents of the sales tax, less payback agreements, back to the General Fund and transfers one cent of the sales tax, less debt service, to the Capital Improvements Fund. The General Fund sales tax collections for the year are expected to exceed budgeted revenue. Due to the excess sales tax revenue in the General Fund, the sales fax transfers to and from the OPWA Fund will exceed budget. Budget amendments are needed in the General Fund and the OPWA Fund to allow for the transfer of those unexpected revenues and to ensure compliance with the voter - approved sales tax ordinance.
