This funding will support a series of <br /> community-focused projects designed to make the corridor safer, more accessible, and more inviting for <br /> residents and businesses alike. <br /> The most recent Community Survey revealed declining neighborhood scores in this region, and the <br /> corridor also contains a significant number of city-owned parcels. These factors underscore the urgency <br /> of pairing infrastructure improvements with housing and economic development. To that end, staff will: <br /> • Market city-owned parcels to attract new housing development. <br /> • Revamp side-lot sales program to more strategically further neighborhood revitalization. <br /> • Explore additional revitalization strategies—from facade improvements to focused grant funding—to <br /> bring visible and lasting change to the corridor. <br /> 7 <br />
