The Redevelopment Plan was adopted by City Council on July 18, 1974. In keeping with the City General Plan for the development of industrial parks, the key goal is the creation of a healthy, active industrial center with the physical and economic strength to maintain itself. To reach that goal, the primary objective of the Plan is to entice labor-intensive industries into the Project to provide new employment opportunities.

An Amended Redevelopment Plan was adopted by The City Council Ordinance No. 174773 on August 14, 2002.

This Plan contains revisions which do the following:

a. Extend the time limit to commence eminent domain for twelve (12) years from the date of adoption of the ordinance adopting this Amended Plan;

b. Change certain Plan objectives, proposed redevelopment actions, general controls and limitations and other text as requested by the WIPAC's Community Advisory Committee; and

c. Various revisions to the text for clean-up purposes or to reflect changes in the Redevelopment Law.

Open Storage Regulations:

No open storage of cargo containers or salvage materials are permitted, effective Aug. 1 2003 - 2004 and may be extended. See Open Storage Control Ordinance - No. 177243 [PDF, 1.46MB, 33 pages total]
