PARK MASTER REDEVELOPMENT PLAN.
WHEREAS, the City's 1999 Comprehensive Plan emphasized the need for developing a
detailed Comprehensive strategy for the Industrial Park area, and

redevelopment efforts that enhance the tax capacity of the area, and

blighted level, others have high vacancy rates, others have become both physically and
economically obsolete, and

is focused on:
· Identifying land uses that can be supported in today's market place

substantial change over the next one to five years
· Establishing a new land use pattern that furthers community objectives
WHEREAS, this plan addresses the primary question; what kinds of uses have the highest

the necessary steps of implementation.
