What: repairs and leasing at the city-owned Red River District buildings.
Where it stands: On September 8 the committee heard that lighting, roof and ceiling-tile repairs were complete except two fixtures on order; awnings were awaiting plans and permits; about 8 spaces were at roughly 50 percent occupancy.
Next: Awning permits and construction, electrical work in vacant buildings, and leasing once a letter of intent expires.
