Top issues during term (3)(Development)
Economic development: Kibar Americas, WVU Medicine, and downtown projects
Roughly $27 million invested in new operating rooms, with an anticipated $70 million hospital wing to follow.
TIF financing for Momentum Adventure Park and West Fork River Trail
Actual bond amount expected well below the $20 million maximum; the resolution itself authorizes no debt.
Housing affordability and availability gap
The city spent about $10,000 on the study (partly grant-funded), and the gap includes future costs of repair programs, incentives, and potential new development.
