MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 7, 2004
TO: City Co"ndl ~
FROM: Steven Nasby, Community and Economic Development Coordinator' /f
RE: Amendment to the Near Southside Residential Urban Revitalization Plan
On the October 19 agenda there is a proposed amendment to the Near Southside
Residential Urban Revitalization Plan to extend the life of the plan until December 31, 2014.
If no action is taken to amend the Near Southside Residential Urban Revitalization Plan it
will sunset on December 13, 2004.
In March 1992, the City Council adopted a redevelopment plan for the Near Southside
Neighborhood (generally south of Burlington Street, west of Gilbert Street, east of Madison
Street and north of the Iowa Interstate Railway), The Near Southside Residential Urban
Revitalization Plan was then passed by the City Council in 1994 as a tax incentive tool to
encourage residential development of affordable housing and historic preservation in the
Near Southside area.
Redevelopment of this area has not progressed as quickly as anticipated; however, with the
construction of the new Court Street Transportation Center future redevelopment in the
target area may be forthcoming. To continue to implement the goals of the 1992 Near
Southside Neighborhood Redevelopment Plan staff is recommending the proposed
amendment to the Near Southside Residential Urban Revitalization Plan thereby extending
the sunset clause to December 31, 2014.
A complete copy of the 1992 Near Southside Residential Redevelopment Plan and the Urban
Revitalization Plan are included in the packet for your information, At your work session on
Oct. 18, there will be a brief presentation of the Near Southside Redevelopment Plan since
many of the Councilors may be unfamiliar with this Plan. If you have any questions please
contact me at 356-5248.
