Chuck" Fowler, Jr. Gary Johnson City Clerk September 2, 2026 Mayor Jacques M. Roy City of Alexandria Sci 0 2;): r.;; Dear Mayor: I am writing to you today as the Councilman for District One regarding the proposed $ 82 million REIGNITE project along the Masonic Drive Corridor. Let me be clear: I support investing in Alexandria. Upgrading our roads, improving local parks, and creating workforce housing are all great goals for our community, and I want to see our city move forward. However, as a leader, my job is to make sure we handle the taxpayers' money responsibly. Before the City commits tens of millions of dollars to this project, the City Council and the public deserve clear answers about what this investment will cost, what financial return it will bring, and how we plan to pay for it over time. To ensure we make an informed decision, I respectfully ask the City administration to hire an independent financial expert— one with no personal or financial stake in building or managing these projects— to perform a full cost-benefit analysis. At a minimum, this study should explain:
- Exact Costs: A clear, itemized price tag for each part of the project ( including design, construction, and backup funds for unexpected cost increases) that shows how everything adds up to the $82 million total.
- Payment Sources: Where every dollar is coming from ( sales taxes, city savings, loans, or state/ federal grants), along with the annual loan payments and loan terms.
- Long-Term Maintenance: How much it will cost to operate and maintain the new facilities each year— like Bringhurst Park, Masonic Court Sports, and the Office of the City Council• P. O. Box 71 • Alexandria, LA 71309- 0071• Tel( 318) 449- 5048 Fax( 31 8) 449- 5042 tennis courts— and where that annual upkeep money will come from after construction ends.
- New Tax Revenue: A realistic year- by-year estimate of any new sales or property taxes this project will generate for the City, along with the math behind those estimates.
- S. Break- Even Timeline: How long it will take for the City to earn back what it spends, showing which specific projects make financial sense and which ones are purely community amenities.
- Grants: A realistic list of state or federal grants the City actually qualifies for and expects to receive, including required matching funds and deadlines, rather than grants we simply hope to get.
- Private Partnerships: The specific terms of any agreements with private partners ( such as the Alexandria Mall), including what happens to the City financially if a private partner backs out.
- Worst- Case Scenario: An honest look at what happens to our return on investment if local population and job trends do not grow as projected.
- Other City Needs: How spending this money impacts our ability to fix higherpriority basics— like streets, drainage, water, sewer, and public safety— in neighborhoods across the city.
- Job Growth Claims: The exact formula and sources used to predict new jobs and economic growth, verified by an independent third party. I know the City previously ordered a market study for the corridor. That study looked at consumer demand and retail gaps to see what kinds of businesses might succeed there. While helpful, it did not tell us whether the City' s treasury will actually recover the money it spends. A proper cost-benefit analysis is required to answer that question. I ask that this financial study be completed and shared with the City Council before any money is spent, before any loans are approved, or before any contracts are signed— and no later than thirty ( 30) days from the date of this letter. If any financial studies or loan capacity documents have already been prepared, please share: those records and their supporting work papers with the Council right away. I am asking these questions to fulfill my responsibility to the voters of District One, not to oppose progress. If the numbers show that this project is a wise investment, I will gladly support it publicly. Thank you for your time..and attention to this important matter. Sincerely, Malcolm X.
