Neighborhood Investment Program
Objectives
The objective of the Neighborhood Investment Program is to systematically upgrade the City infrastructure, an area at a time in our older, established neighborhoods before deterioration begins by identifying the program areas, taking a comprehensive assessment of existing conditions including input from property owners and residents, determining needs and developing a work plan, funding sources and a timeline.Program Outcomes
The anticipated program outcomes are to develop public/private partnerships where property owners and utilities work with the City on area improvements, such as upgrading and improving public facilities, and the residents continue to maintain or improve their properties maximizing property values and a high quality of life in our neighborhoods-
