2. Community Outreach and Relationship Building

Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting · 2026-06-15 · agenda_item

This item concerns community outreach and relationship building for a planning process. The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) plans to establish a visible liaison to connect the City and the community. This will involve maintaining a physical presence in surrounding neighborhoods and project areas to build trust and encourage participation. Activities will include door-to-door outreach, small group meetings, stakeholder interviews, and attending community events. The goal is to develop relationships with community leaders and organizations to support inclusive participation. This early stage of the planning process presents an opportunity for businesses that can support community engagement, such as those providing event services, marketing, or administrative support. Early engagement with the CRA could lead to future opportunities as the planning process moves forward.
