Golf course, Blue Ridge Cascade petition & TIF 13
What the record shows
Blue Ridge has fully retired the original petition and says none of those submissions will be used as community support. The current public question is the substance of the Woodhaven Together proposal, the alternatives still open and how the proposal compares with the actual Conservation Plan.

Why these records are included: Sandra McGlothlin served on the TIF 13 board, and separate public court records document a Woodhaven-related meeting categorized as “sourcing equity partners.” Those records warrant clarification. They do not establish that she invested, received compensation or committed misconduct.

Woodhaven Business Park: zoning, support and possible TIF sewer funding
What the record shows
WNA formally supported the 6750 J.W. Delaney project in 2023. Empire’s own later materials show a support tally combining Woodhaven participants with outside organizations and overlapping endorsements. In June 2026, Empire began exploring whether Woodhaven TIF 13 could participate in approximately $1.46 million of sewer infrastructure.

Community center: community preference, funding and location
What the record shows
The Conservation Plan identifies an indoor-recreation and meeting-space gap and recommends a community center, but that recommendation does not establish neighborhood-wide support. It presents several delivery models, including a City-run center and a mixed-use public-private partnership that could be eligible for TIF funding. No site or funding package has been approved.

Current assessment as of July 28, 2026: TIF participation is a question for formal City review, not an established funding commitment. A mixed-use community-center component has a stronger stated TIF theory in the Conservation Plan than a standalone City facility, which the plan says would typically rely on a bond package.

Separate governance questions remain concerning Woodhaven Community Development, Inc.
