Dallas Mill Site Area Redevelopment Project

In December, City staff and representatives of the property owner led a consultant team, which included lead consultant David Evans & Associates (DEA) and the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), on a site tour of the former Dallas Mill in south Dallas. Using a state Transportation Growth Management (TGM) grant, the City has retained a DEA and their subcontractors to help design a redevelopment plan for the Dallas Mill Site to include improvements to the transportation systems in this part of the city. The Council’s goal is to create new industrial and commercial development opportunities to bring new jobs, investment, and tax revenue to support public safety, parks, and other important General Fund-supported operations. A large and diverse Project Advisory Committee, representing a broad base of community stakeholders, convened for their inaugural meeting on January 25, 2024 to help the consultant, ODOT and the City shape the project.
