Developers needed - Seeding the neighborhood

The City of MWC owns about 7 vacant lots in the Original Square Mile. This means the taxpayers are responsible for funding the mowing and maintenance of these properties. Additionally, they are not adding to the quality of the neighborhood. I am very pleased that working through our Original Mile Redevelopment Committee we are moving forward to work with developers to build quality homes on these lots in hopes that they will serve as seeds for additional development in the neighborhood. We have published a request for proposal for developers to partner with the City on this project.  This model has been used successfully in places across the country - including the Paseo - where individual investment working with local governments spur neighborhood revitalization.  It is one step towards our goal. Please pass this along to anyone who might be interested.
