Once the infrastructure is complete, an increasing proportion of the taxes generated by the redevelopment will be available for the City’s General Fund.
In addition, the construction of infrastructure and buildings at Mueller is expected to generate approximately 10,000 total “job years.” This means that during a 10-year build-out period, an average of 1,000 full-time workers would be employed in construction each year.
The Mueller redevelopment also incorporates principles based on the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) program and the City’s own Green Building Program.
The park system has been designed to reduce off-site flooding and to treat stormwater before it is released into natural streams, while the street system has been designed to support bicycle and pedestrian circulation.
