TIRZ Board LIVE stream 6-30-26

The City of San Angelo's Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) Board held a meeting on June 30, 2026, focusing on financial updates, policy formalization, and public safety technology investments within the TIRZ districts. The board approved minutes from the previous meeting and discussed the current budget status, noting healthy fund balances in both the North and South TIRZ districts with ongoing application cycles for funding. A key policy update was approved to formalize funding eligibility for multiple addresses under one ownership and for multiple businesses within a single structure, providing clearer guidance for future funding applications. The board received an update on fire prevention efforts, including demolition and boarding of dangerous buildings, with discussions about potential funding rollovers and the possibility of contracting third-party services due to city staffing constraints. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to the police department's use of drone technology and pan-tilt-zoom cameras funded by TIRZ monies to enhance real-time crime response and public safety. The board approved a one-time additional funding request of $42,000 to expand camera installations in key areas of the TIRZ districts. The meeting also included discussions on the importance of collaboration with county officials and the ongoing comprehensive planning efforts to guide future TIRZ initiatives. The next meeting was scheduled for July 28, 2026.
