A Dallas City Council Committee Monday endorsed the expansion of the Oak Cliff Gateway Tax Increment Financing District, which began as a way to support redevelopment in far North Oak Cliff and Bishop Arts.
“I think this neighborhood could use some improvement. We could use the same monies that are going to North Dallas, East Dallas, etc. The businesses here have the same goals as everyone else. We want to succeed. We want to provide good incomes for our employees,” Wingfield owner Tony Woods said.
“That's true equity and we've been talking about it for years and we're finally seeing it here,” Councilman Omar Narvaez said. “This is a major step today, a major. It is past the Jolly Green Giant's footprints,” Council Member Carolyn King Arnold said.
