Wichita Falls city councilors will meet at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday in the Seminar Room at the MPEC, 1000 Fifth St., to discuss an agreement with Winco to build a new stretch of roadway.
The agreement would reimburse the Idaho-based company up to $1.284 million in tax increment financing funds for Winco’s construction of South Wenonah Avenue from Kell Boulevard to Gregory Road.
The street would connect to a supermarket that Winco is building at Kell and South Wenonah.
According to city staff, the deal would save taxpayers $800,000 to $1 million over the cost of building the street alone.
Plans are being developed to extend South Wenonah Avenue from Gregory Road to Maplewood Avenue with an additional $2.7 million in tax increment funds.
In other matters, councilors will consider:
Accepting a $10,000 grant from the National Association of County and City Health Officials.
Appropriating $150,000 in opioid settlement funding grants to assist non-profit organizations.
Approved a development agreement with 7Crew Enterprises LLC for the construction of an additional turn lane on Piedmont Place and Kemp Boulevard.
