Shawnee County Commissioners voted unanimously to express intent to issue Industrial Revenue Bonds for a West Ridge Mall renovation project. Commissioner Kevin Cook voted to approve the motion, with County Commissioner Bill Riphan seconding the motion.
State law allows for IRBs to “develop the general welfare and economic prosperity of the state through the promotion and advancement of industrial development,” according to the Kansas Department of Commerce.
Advisors Excel purchased the mall in 2023 with plans to turn part of it into the company’s new headquarters while enhancing commercial and retail space. The mall is requesting taxable Industrial Revenue Bonds (IRB) to help finance the construction, renovation, improvement and furnishing of the property.
