City Council to Approve Preliminary Economic Development Plan Tuesday

Council will consider a plan to increase tax revenue.

The Woodinville City Council is expected to pass a preliminary economic development plan for Woodinville at its Tuesday, Oct. 11 meeting.

Back in September the City Council Economic Development Committee presented its plan to the council for discussion. The plan’s top priority is to diversify and increase the city’s tax base by encouraging development in areas of the City that are currently under utilized such as developing hotels and more retail and residential outlets in downtown.

Preliminary Implementation Plan would be subject to the city’s normal budget process and that actual timing of the plan will depend upon available funding, other competing projects or programs, and policy choices made by the council, according to a report from Richard Leahy, city manager.
