AGENDA ITEMS
The City of Clermont's Community Redevelopment Agency is considering funding options for an update to the Downtown Master Plan. This plan, originally developed in 2013, is intended to align with current city planning efforts. Staff are seeking direction on using Community Redevelopment Agency funds for this update, with a potential not-to-exceed amount of $350,000. This amount includes $200,000 to reimburse the General Fund for a city Comprehensive Plan update and $150,000 for the Downtown Master Plan update itself. The project is currently under review, with a decision pending on funding allocation and a potential spending cap. This initiative could lead to work in areas such as planning, consulting, and administrative support. Local businesses specializing in professional services, particularly those involved in urban planning, design, and consulting, may find opportunities as this project moves forward. Engaging early is advisable as the specific scope and contracts are still being defined.
