Owasso Redbud District and Increment District No. 1
Small Business Enhancement Agreement
September 15, 2023
BACKGROUND:
In December 2016, the OPWA created the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District in the downtown
Owasso Redbud District area. On April 4, 2017, the OPWA adopted a Policy Guide for the
processing of TIF Assistance in Development Financing applications.
The Policy Guide includes the process for application and approval of Small Business
Enhancements. Beginning July 1, 2019, Small Business Enhancements were made available to any
retail, restaurant, or personal service small business within the Increment District proposing to
enhance the exterior of the structure in which the business is located, provide streetscope
improvements, enhance signage or access, or otherwise improve the appearance of the exterior
of the business. The plan requires a Review Committee to evaluate the application for
compatibility with the Project Plan and the Downtown Overlay District Plan. Upon
recommendation by the Review Committee, a business enhancement agreement is presented
to the OPWA for consideration and approval.
APPLICATION:
As part of the Economic Development contract, the Owasso Chamber of Commerce facilitates
TIF application submittals. On September 1, 2023, Ms. Feary (Chamber President and CEO)
presented an application from Dodwell Designs, LLC, for a Small Business Enhancement on an
existing property located on 108 W 1 sr Avenue Suite B.
The project appears to meet the criteria set forth in the adopted Owasso Redbud District TIF
Project Plan and Policy Guide. As established by the Project Plan and Policy Guide, the applicant
would be eligible to receive reimbursement by the OPWA at the completion of the approved
improvements for 50% of the actual amount expended; however, the amount of reimbursement
shall not exceed $1,500.00. The applicant anticipates the business sign to total $5,150.00.
During the September 7, 2023 meeting, the Review Committee met and voted unanimously to
recommend approval to the OPWA, finding that the project is eligible to receive TIF assistance.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval and execution of the agreement with Dodwell Designs, LLC and
authorization for payment in the amount of $1,500.00 for the addition of a business sign located
at 108 West 1 s Avenue Suite B.

Megan,
The price of the sign we did for Flourish Clothing was $4,850.00finstalled (+ applicable taxes). There was also a $300
permitting fee. I've attached a mockup of what the sign would look like using the same size as your neighbors. Thanks! If you
would like to move forward, I can get an invoice to you for a required half -down payment with the rest due upon completion.

President /CEO- Owasso Chamber of Commerce & Economic Development
Subject: Dodwell Designs, LLC
Small Business Enhancements Application
Date: Friday, September 1, 2023
BACKGROUND
In August 2023, Megan Dodwell, owner of Dodwell Designs, LLC located at 108 W 1 sr Avenue, Suite
B in the Mowery Building, visited with me about her desire to add a sign to the outside of her
business. The building ownerallows each tenant to add a sign above their locations at the tenant's
cost. Ms. Dodwell has gathered an estimate for a sign but the but the cost is burdensome for a
small business. I informed her of the Small Business Enhancements Application for which she is
applying forsome assistance to pay for the sign and increase visibility for her store from Main Street.
Following our conversation, I advised her the project was eligible for Small Business Enhancements
based on the description and estimated costs of improvements to the exterior structure of the
development. It also meets the design and density standards as adopted by the City of Owasso
in the Downtown Overlay District Plan.
Ms. Dodwell submitted her application to our office on Tuesday, August 29, 2023, for Small Business
Enhancements to add a sign above her business located in the Redbud District. The total Project
Costs are $5,150.00. She is requesting $2,575.00, half the total amount. The impact of the added
sign is expected to draw more customers to her businesses and her neighboring businesses.
Ms. Dodwell has provided a letter of support from Renee Mowery, the owner of the Mowery
Building. She has also provided the cost estimate from Frederick Sign Company and a rendering
of the sign design.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Dodwell Designs, LLC application forSmall Business Enhancements meets the objectives in the
Owasso Redbud District Project Plan Increment District No. 1 and is being recommended to the
City of Owasso TIF Application Review Committee for review and approval to move forward the
Owasso City Council.
