Introduction of Next steps to Revitalization
When developing your redevelopment strategy, the types of questions you need to answer include the following:
u Identify your existing partners– who is already on your team? And who are the key partners that should be added to your team?
u What is your catalyst site(s)?
u Do you know what are the community’s needs of the community?
u What types of funding/resources are available?

Building your Team of Partners
ü Your team might consist of at least 3-5 Partners
ü Every community is different, so your community’s
need for partners is specific. Examples of potential Partners might include:
u Chamber of Commerce
u Regional Planning Authority
u Development Authority
u City/County’s Planning staff
u City/County’s Economic Development staff
u Local Businesses and Developers
u Local elected officials (County Commissioner, Councilman, Alderman)
u Community leaders
u Colleges and Universities

Assessing the Community’s needs
u Have you determined the community’s needs?v Does the community have an accepted redevelopment plan that is less than 5 years old?
v Such as a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS)
v Masterplans or Neighborhood Framework plans
v Gauge the community through public meetings or charrettes
u Redevelopment should be tied to the needs of the community. What does the community desire?
u services/jobs/industry
u retail
u housing
u green space
u walking/biking trails
Redevelopment Strategy/Plan:Transitioning from Assessment Phase

Redevelopment Strategy/Plan:Transitioning from Assessment Phase
u Site has been assessed and cleanup is not warranted, move forward with redevelopment
v Private Developer
v Seek other Private/ Public funding
u Site has been assessed - Phase I/Phase II and Draft Analysis of Brownfields Cleanup Alternatives (ABCA) are complete. If cleanup is needed, here are some options:
v Apply for a Brownfields Cleanup grant (or other funding)
v Coordinate with state brownfields program and apply for cleanup funds through the program
v Market the property to private developers
v Seek other funding options: Revolving Loan Fund, regional and state planning/financing authorities
There are multiple ways to move toward developing a catalyst site/corridor.
