The Tavas district in Denizli is undergoing various municipal development and preservation projects. Initially, the Denizli Metropolitan Municipality began efforts to restore the historic Tavas Taş Hanı, also known as Mestanağa Hanı. Despite previous rejections of funding requests from the Denizli Governor's Office, officials indicated a reconciliation process was underway to fund the restoration through the municipality’s own budget to preserve the site’s cultural heritage.

Following these preservation efforts, construction commenced on the Tavas Trade Center, a joint project between the Denizli Metropolitan Municipality and Tavas Municipality. This new commercial and social complex is designed to include shops, offices, a book cafe, and a fitness salon, while also providing indoor parking to address local traffic concerns.
