The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) of New Port Richey, Florida will receive Proposal Statements for updating and amending the New Port Richey Community Redevelopment Plan (CRP) in consideration of changes in market and other conditions in the designated redevelopment area since the CRP’s adoption in 2001 and current community aspirations for the redevelopment area. The CRP is intended to propose a general work program and timeframe within which public and private resources may be used to accomplish a sufficient degree of rehabilitation, restoration, infrastructure improvement, and redevelopment activity.
The CRP should include recommendations for the use of public resources within the redevelopment area and may include recommendations regarding the acquisition and disposition of land in the area. Amendments to the adopted CRP must meet the standards and requirements set forth in the Community Redevelopment Act of 1969, Chapter 163, Part III, Florida Statutes. The amended CRP shall be based in part on the conditions identified in the original Finding of Necessity for Redevelopment and propose methods by which those conditions may be improved.
Amendments to the CRP shall be consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan and existing zoning in the redevelopment area, or suggest appropriate amendments to achieve consistency.
The submission deadline is 3:00 p.m. February 28, 2017. For a copy of RFP # 17-004 – Community Redevelopment Plan Update contact Mario Iezzoni, Economic Development Director at 727-853-1019 or iezzonim@cityofnewportrichey.org
