Synopsis and Activities
DDA Synopsis -2018-2019
Since its inception in 2003, the DDA has completed three major projects that its work plan set out to accomplish. The first is street lighting placed in the median of Gratiot Avenue to make the DDA area safe, bright and inviting. The lights are LED and are currently maintained by the DDA. Second, the DDA contracted with a company to install landscaping improvements in the median on Gratiot Avenue to enhance the median greenspace and make the corridor more inviting. The landscaping is currently maintained by the DDA. Third, the DDA installed new entrance signs at the north and south ends of Gratiot Avenue within the median to clearly delineate the DDA boundaries. These signs are currently maintained by the DDA. During this past year, budget year 2018-19, the Planning Department discovered that the Tax Increment Finance Plan and DDA Work Plan had expired without any extension or renewal. As a result, the Department of Planning and Community Development at the direction of the DDA is currently working on a new TIF/Work Plan that is expected to be adopted by the DDA this spring and approved by resolution of the Township Board. The immediate goals of the DDA are to: -Start capturing revenues -Approve and promote a new Façade Improvement Program to enhance the corridor and to generate additional tax revenues -Design and install a pedestrian lighting system along the east and west sides of Gratiot Avenue. -Promote the Gratiot Cruise As a result of the expiration of the TIF/Work Plan, all captured revenues have been refunded to the appropriate taxing jurisdictions as required. |
