This enormous $102.1 million in TIF funds (Final approval pending OKCED & OKC City Council) is an investment that will help the Chickasaw Nation accelerate their plans (Phases) on that 100 acre development,
Four important factors with this development:
1. Adds a 404 room hotel resort in an undeveloped area that will enhance the FAM museum. Will benefit visitors of the WCWS who stay at the
resort much like the tourism associated with the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum.
2. Potential access to the area with more infill development near the OKANA Resort & FAM Museum with more road infrastructure. More
covered parking garage structures.
3. Potential to add an Aquarium and a Multipurpose Stadium to the area all south of the Oklahoma River. More sit down eating
establishments and some fast food restaurants in the area.
4. The infrastructure that will be needed can be supported by funds in the Biden Infrastructure bill. Look for Residential developments to
explode in this area.
The $342 million OKANA Resort & Water Park Development will have a comparable impact that MAPS 1 had on Oklahoma City in the 1990s.
