Background:

On March 21, 2017, Broken Arrow City Council approved an Economic Development Agreement, between the City of Broken Arrow and B.A. Vespers, L.L.C.  The Developers with B.A. Vespers, agreed to develop, construct and operate an office and commercial development consisting of approximately 14,000 square feet potentially consisting of uses for technology, legal, accounting, engineering, consulting, software, retail trade, communications, financial, real estate and restaurant in accordance with the following schedule: Construction start date was June 1, 2017.  Construction completion date was December 31, 2018. 

Recently the Principles with B.A. Vespers approached the City requesting an extension on the completion date of the project.  Although they had already begun construction, finding an end user for the space in the allotted time, had proven to be problematic.

The First Amendment to the Economic Development Agreement simply extends the completion date to July 1, 2019.
