Superior expands tax districts to purchase Kari Toyota property
What happened
The Plan Commission recommended expanding two tax increment districts in Superior to purchase Kari Toyota’s former facility on Tower Avenue. This nearly 2-acre property was agreed upon for purchase and possible demolition, with the expansion intended to fund infrastructure for 50 new townhomes planned by Ronchi Brothers Construction. The purchase and possible demolition would be funded through the tax increment expansion.
