The parcel sits adjacent to the DDA's current boundary and the company would like for the DDA to amend its boundary to include the parcel in the district.

Kyle Bennett, assistant director of tourism and visitor center operations, said the change is needed so the company can be eligible to receive a Downtown Development Revolving Loan from the state Department of Community Affairs.

The loan, which is capped at $250,000, can be used by cities, counties and development authorities to revitalize their downtown areas "by providing below-market rate financing to fund capital projects in core historic downtown areas and adjacent historic neighborhoods," according to DCA's website.Β
