From the meeting
At its November 4, 2026 meeting the City Council considered a resolution to establish a STAR bond district within Fairview Heights. The resolution said the district could support at least $30,000,000 in capital investment, $60,000,000 in projected annual gross sales, and 300 new full-time jobs. The proposed district centered on Illinois Route 159, Lincoln Trail, St.
Clair Square, Market Place, and Crossroads Centre, and the plan contemplated mixed-use retail, hotel, entertainment, public amenities, infrastructure, and stormwater facilities. A public hearing was set for December 1, 2026.
