Project Jackson aims to build hotel stores and stadium in Augusta
Augusta residents debate Project Jackson a 25 acre mixed use plan for the Green Jackets between The River Club and Hammond's Ferry. Critics say FOIA violations warrant nullification while backers argue the 1996 blight study suffices for TIF funding despite land values rising over 100 million since the initial assessment.

North Augusta faces path forward on TIF amid court orders
The city weighs continuing the current TIF plan or restarting with public hearings as the South Carolina Supreme Court considers the order. Donohue sued in 2013 to stop the development, with Judge Kinard ruling for the city in 2014 and appeals moving through higher courts seeking jurisdiction. A ruling could trigger new hearings, notices, and costs impacting the planned amenities for residents.
