Public Meeting set to discuss Roosevelt Corridor Reinvestment Plan
-Final draft to be presented for review and comment-

Councilwoman Jennifer V. Ramos and the City’s Planning and Development Services Department are hosting a public meeting to discuss the proposed Roosevelt Corridor Reinvestment Plan, including the Roosevelt Avenue Metropolitan Corridor Overlay District design standards and recommendations for zoning changes. The meeting will be held at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, July 28 at the Harlandale Community Center, located at 7227 Briar Place.

The Roosevelt Corridor Reinvestment Plan area includes both sides of Roosevelt Avenue from Lone Star Blvd. to the north, to Loop 410 to the south. Community stakeholders will have an opportunity to review and comment on strategies that have been identified for encouraging reinvestment along the Roosevelt Corridor. These strategies include infrastructure projects, community-based initiatives, design standards for new construction, and zoning changes.

After incorporating comments from the community, the final version of the Reinvestment Plan will be presented at the annual Community Development Summit, scheduled for September 16 and 17 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center. The overlay district design standards and zoning change recommendations will be forwarded to Zoning Commission for consideration and to City Council for approval.
