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 streetscape 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: In August, Vines Properties, Inc. submitted an application for brick work, waterproofing, and painting at a business located at 7720 N Owasso Expressway. The applicant hopes to enhance visibility and improve the curb appeal of the commercial property. 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 $5,000.00. The applicant anticipates the improvements to total $13,445.00. During the August 18, 2025, 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 Vines Properties, Inc., and authorization for payment in the amount of $5,000.00 for exterior improvements located at 7720 N Owasso Expressway.
