Darren Pews, who identified himself as the region manager for TOK Commercial, said the Kingston family plans a mixed retail and service center with pads for restaurants and strip centers, interior parking, and a larger rear building that could accommodate a mid-size anchor tenant or medical/professional offices. \"We have a gas stations on the corner... pads set up for quick serve restaurant users and some strip centers and, a bigger building in the back that we believe will be occupied by a mid sized box anchor tenant or perhaps, you know, some professional office, medical office, buildings,\" Pews said.

The presenters said the site currently comprises five parcels with several older buildings that will need demolition, including an older bank building containing asbestos. They noted a major geotechnical constraint: a large lava vein running through the site that will likely require blasting or other substantial earthwork to make the land developable. \"The site also has a big hump in the land and we have yet to do a a study on or or, you know, do any drilling or or, analysis on that. But we're we're about 99% sure that it's got a big lava vein that runs down the center of it,\" Pews said.

Agency members and developers discussed zoning and parcel configuration. Megan, agency staff, noted the property is already zoned for the proposed uses, though site replatting and cleanup of access points will be needed. The development team said they expect to request a replat to consolidate parcels and to address access. Board members emphasized that the site appearance and buildability are important for encouraging further west-side investment.

Agency staff said the presentation was a discussion item but that staff will prepare a memorandum of understanding between the agency and the developer for the board to consider in August. \"This is not contemplated as an action item on the agenda. It's just a discussion item. But I think I can go ahead and bring, work on an MOU with the development team and can bring that back to the board hopefully by the August meeting for the board consideration at that time,\" Megan said.

The developers asked for the board's feedback as they prepare a formal application; no formal commitment of agency funds was made at the July 17 meeting. The agency indicated support for continued discussion and directed staff to draft the MOU for possible action next month.

Ending: Staff will draft an MOU and return to the board at the August meeting for consideration; developers plan to submit a formal application following board feedback.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Idaho Falls City - Redevelopment Agency - Jul 17, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Developers representing the Kingston family presented a redevelopment concept for the Skyline and Broadway corner, described demolition and geotechnical challenges, and the Redevelopment Agency will ask staff to draft an MOU for board consideration at the August meeting.","taxTitle","Idaho Falls, Bonneville County, Idaho","taxId",4472,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6683737,"Redevelopment Agency approves publication of draft FY2026 budget; task orders for two district studies approved",1100,4000,1104000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5418312-6d4032cc7f5a158948476c08bc8d3c0a&start=4&end=1104","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5418312-6d4032cc7f5a158948476c08bc8d3c0a/thumbnail_4000.jpg","/articles/6683737/Idaho-Falls/Bonneville-County/Idaho/Redevelopment-Agency-approves-publication-of-draft-FY2026-budget-task-orders-for-two-district-studies-approved","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6683737-626494337818be8ee82d54d4705d9f81/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137410&Signature=gJq2ikrXnnMZGXWWCXiYfe64iWlHNDAt6ydacgcjn8F7BtbvR8Y0nCjyUNZ9M~M3zian~fja8bQWlq25i4q0Fdh6inZQorpmIGdJwpLlpdYSzYUAigFNc8atchlRu~Yr96t6eiHevW3wMw5Kzu86BaF6hjRz5d2U~e3Yk33LzUl7dotPMgdSUI3U~7Gmfx2rqCUyPEW~5hLS~RnWax8ZPrcD0TeLDOMpkqpKD6O7fPHO7lsts0ZpQBWeo3ohGjb7532Sv6jzmiDg5W6jFSy25PaiNo0MpbDRD55XoaTNAeorIs0zLg5v2eNIPrH4i3cU8FjiahBN6fmd7a~DYpUVVQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Idaho Falls Redevelopment Agency accepted minutes from its June 18 meeting, approved the agency expenditure and finance report, and voted unanimously to publish the proposed fiscal year 2026 budget for a public hearing on Aug. 21, the agency said at its July 17 meeting.

Agency staff presented the draft budget and worksheets showing revenues and expenditures for existing and newly added districts. \"We have added the Riverwalk as well as the Riverside Districts to our budget worksheet this year,\" said Cassie, an agency staff member who walked the board through the revenue and expenditure assumptions. Cassie told the board she used recent collections as a conservative basis for property-tax projections and estimated interest at 2% of available cash balances.

The agency also approved two consultant task orders authorizing Brad Kramer, a consultant under an existing personal services agreement, to begin work: Task Order 11 for an eligibility/economic feasibility study related to the proposed Riverside district (identified in discussion as Ball Ventures South) and Task Order 12 to prepare an economic feasibility study for the Riverwalk area, including analysis of hotel-generated property tax revenue. \"There is a personal services agreement with Mister Kramer and when different scopes of work come up related to these urban renewal plans we memorialize them in a task order,\" said Megan, agency staff, describing the authorization the task orders provide.

Board members asked staff for clarifications on revenue assumptions and how committed capital-project funds and owner participation agreement (OPA) payments are reflected in the draft. Cassie said OPA payments were calculated by applying the OPA percentages to the projected property-tax receipts, and that some OPAs for recently added districts remained draft documents. The board also discussed a previously committed capital expense associated with River Commons (referred to during the meeting as a $2.442 million committed expense to \"move the rock\"), and staff confirmed that committed expense is reflected in the capital projects line.

Motion outcomes recorded at the meeting included acceptance of meeting minutes, approval of the expenditure finance report, authorization to publish the FY2026 proposed budget and notice of public hearing, and approval of Task Orders 11 and 12. Chair, Redevelopment Agency, closed the motion to publish the budget by saying, \"Motion passes unanimously. Thank you, Cassie, for your hard work on that.\" The agency will hold the public hearing on Aug. 21 as noticed.
