What is a Community Redevelopment Plan?

The Community Redevelopment Agency is responsible for developing and implementing the Community Redevelopment Plan that addresses the unique needs of the redevelopment District. The plan includes the overall goals for redevelopment in the area, as well as identifying the types of projects planned for the area.

Projects

Examples of traditional projects include:

  • Building renovations
  • Flood control initiatives
  • Neighborhood parks
  • New building construction
  • Parking lots and garages
  • Sidewalks
  • Street tree plantings
  • Streetscapes and roadway improvements
  • Water and sewer improvements

The plan can also include redevelopment incentives such as grants and loans for such things as façade improvements, landscaping, signs, and structural improvements.

Plan Updates

The redevelopment plan is a document that can be updated to meet the changing needs within the Community Redevelopment Area; however, the boundaries of the area cannot be changed without starting the process from the beginning.
