collected. Therefore, the Authority did not complete any projects during the first 5-years. After capturing 3
consecutive years (2016 – 2018) of tax increment revenue, the OWA-LDFA accumulated a meaningful sum of
money. Going into the 2018 construction season, OWA-LDFA had unrestricted cash reserves of approximately
$293,485.89. During 2018 OWA-LDFA expended $144,924.66 for the reconstruction of Pride Road.
