'We Finally Got There': Osage Beach Approves Outlet Mall Redevelopment Deal

Osage Beach aldermen approved the Redevelopment Agreement for the nearly empty outlet mall with a 6-0 vote. The final agreement includes provisions for pay-as-you-go TIF reimbursement administration costs and allows the Board to waive certain financing preconditions. Excavation will begin once permits are obtained, with Bass Pro Shops set to be the anchor store. The project marks a significant step in revitalizing the mall, once a key economic pillar.
