Urban Renewal is one of the City's economic development tools. By designating Urban Renewal Areas for the purposes of slum and blight or for economic development for commercial or industrial development or for low-to-moderate income housing or for housing infrastructure, the City is able to provide incentives for specific projects as approved by the City Council and stated within an Urban Renewal Plan.
To find out more about whether or not your project is currently located in an Urban Renewal Area or if one can be created for your project, please contact the City Administrator's office.
