Public Input on Non-Agenda Items: A. Mr. David Kossove spoke about TIF District, and how no recent development has occurred in the TIF District until recently. Mr. Kossove thought the CAB would be the ideal board to oversee development, as much of the TIF District is within the CAB’s overlay districts. Mr. Kossove went on to mention the city’s potential entryway of Broad Street as a main corridor. He said the former armory was built in 1938 and makes a strong architectural statement. Mr. Kossove said he helped design a gateway on Broad Street, which he believes could be paid for by the TIF. SCDOT would require a traffic light at the intersection of Broad and Church Streets, which the city would need to pay for, but the money could come from the TIF. He sought insight from the CAB members. Mr. Kossove presented a p …
