Neighborhood Planning
The CDC worked with community members, public and private developers, and government entities to create the Greater Hill District Master Plan. Facilitating and implementing the Master Plan is the work of the Hill CDC. We are equipped to advise developers on all aspects of neighborhood planning including convening community members, business owners, and stakeholders to vet development projects’ chances of success and communicating with all necessary community parties to gain project buy-in.
Program Planning Support
The Greater Hill District Master Plan does more than outline real estate development – it charts a vision for quality of life for the Hill. The vision includes relevant, effective, and available programming, based upon the assets of the community. As a community development corporation first concerned with the quality of life for Hill District residents and stakeholders, the Hill CDC will assist with garnering the resources to bring to fruition programming that complements real estate development projects. Specifically, we will assist with the development of your program:
- Goals
- Objectives
- Organization and management
- Evaluation strategies
