The City of Belleville is currently undertaking an update to its Community Improvement Plan (CIP) to support investment and development across the city. A public meeting will be held during the Nov. 24 Council Meeting to hear and receive comments from the public on the draft plan.
WHAT: Housing, Downtown Revitalization and Brownfield Redevelopment CIP Public Meeting
WHEN: Monday, Nov. 24 at 4 p.m.
WHERE: Council Chamber, 4th Floor City Hall (169 Front St.)
The Community Improvement Plan supports local revitalization, beautification and economic development in the City of Belleville by providing grants for private property owners to help offset project costs that achieve the City’s community planning and development goals. The purpose of the update is to revisit priorities and financial incentives to achieve several community improvement objectives, including:
encouraging the development of more missing middle housing and affordable housing
supporting the rehabilitation of existing buildings to revitalize the downtown
encouraging the redevelopment and rehabilitation of underutilized brownfield sites to support new housing and revitalization goals
To learn more and view the draft plan, visit the Housing, Downtown Revitalization and Brownfield Redevelopment Community Improvement Plan project page.
