City Council Economic Vitality Committee <br />Meeting Minutes <br />May 8, 2025 <br />Page5of6 <br />There was discussion regarding Ironton's as unknown opening date, possible <br />tax incentives, urban renewal incentives, sustainability incentives and <br />possible landmarking potential. <br />Mayor Leh asked for information regarding the main street designation. <br />Manager Zarate responded the main street designation was originally brought <br />up during the potential incentives conversation.
