Urban Renewal

------------

On July 23, 2013, following several years of study of urban renewal and its possible use as a tool to enhance economic growth in the downtown and NE Gateway District, the McMinnville City Council voted unanimously to approve the McMinnville Urban Renewal Plan. This action came after an extensive process that involved sessions designed to educate elected officials, staff, affected taxing districts, and interested parties on the topic of urban renewal; a comprehensive study of the feasibility of this tool's use in an area of McMinnville; and a collaborative and involved public outreach effort.

Prior to the City Council's action, the Plan had undergone review by the Planning Commission and two Council appointed advisory committees, all of which had recommended its approval. Public testimony received on the draft plan at open house events and public hearings was overwhelmingly positive.

Subsequent to the adoption of the Plan, the Urban Renewal Board, which consists of members of the McMinnville City Council, created the McMinnville Urban Renewal Advisory Committee (MURAC) and adopted bylaws to guide its roles, responsibilities, and operations.

The seven members of the MURAC, together with three non-voting, ex-officio members, were appointed on January 14, 2014, and will be responsible for reviewing, advising, and making recommendations to the McMinnville Urban Renewal Board on matters related to the "McMinnville Urban Renewal Plan."
