City of Jonesboro
Mayor Harold Copenhaver toured the tornado-damaged Turtle Creek Mall last week with members of his administration and Mall General Manager Rick Jackson.
Copenhaver saw progress made by mall ownership since the March 28, 2020, storm, but deemed it insufficient considering the almost 10 months that have passed. Consequently, City Code Enforcement Director Michael Tyner issued a letter to the Turtle Creek ownership group, Brookfield Properties of Chicago, declaring the eastern-most damaged portion of the mall a “hazard to the public” and a “nuisance against public health.”
The City issued a 30-day notice for a response in writing containing “a detailed plan of action indicating your intentions to either continue making necessary repairs or raze and remove the structure.”
