Legislative Position Statement on Community Redevelopment Agencies in Florida

Community redevelopment agencies (CRAs) are incredibly successful tools for breathing new life into communities that have been neglected or forgotten. Their purpose is to eradicate physical blight in its many forms – through local leadership and a publicly vetted redevelopment plan. There are no state or federal monies spent by CRAs. Revenues used by CRAs come from FUTURE property value increases in the area – called “increment” because they are incremental increases in value, from year to year.
