The Tallahassee Community Redevelopment Agency on Thursday approved the expansion of the Frenchtown/Southside District to include parts of South City, Orange Avenue and Springhill Road.
It’s a move championed by City Commissioner Curtis Richardson, who has pushed the effort for four years and at times grew frustrated with the CRA board’s lukewarm support for the proposal. However, the expansion received unanimous backing from city and county commissioners who make up the CRA board.
