Rediscover, Refocus and Reinvigorate
Your Community’s Redevelopment Plan
Sometimes your community redevelopment plan can feel like ancient history. It has languished without care for years. The initial momentum has eroded. Community support has toppled. Tax revenue has lost its footing. Businesses find the area unappealing. If these are your CRA’s symptoms, The Mellgren Planning Group can help you reinvigorate your community redevelopment plan.
EVALUATE
The Mellgren Planning Group accomplishes this by first re-evaluating whether the current plan still meets your community’s needs.
LISTEN
We organize community meetings and facilitate ideas by business owners, residents and local government leaders to enhance the existing or create a new redevelopment plan.
ANALYZE
We look at the configuration of the current tax base and create several development scenarios that compliment the community’s vision and maximize the potential tax base improvement.
PLAN
We write a creative and realistic development plan that details changes and provides zoning and land use regulations that will facilitate development and redevelopment. The plan is presented to your community through neighborhood and local government boards, enabling residents, elected officials and staff to fine tune the plan and develop consensus.
Our plans address outcomes – quality of life, utilization of existing infrastructure, increased tax base, and the opportunity to redevelop with a specific vision. We use 3-D animation and maps to present development concepts. A final document is easy to use as a reference tool.
TURNKEY IMPLEMENTATION SOLUTIONS
A plan is simply a document. Implementation requires action. We provide you with additional services that can help you put your plan in motion. We provide temporary or full-time planning, zoning review, building and project management services to move the process along. We also can help you advertise and promote your community to attract businesses and redevelopment to your district.
