Title: DISCUSSION AND DIRECTION REGARDING DEVELOPMENT OF SW 700 - 800 BLOCKS OF WEST ATLANTIC AVENUE
Summary
The Delray Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) is considering two options for developing the SW 700 and 800 blocks of West Atlantic Avenue, which currently contain vacant parcels. The recommended actions include drafting a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a mixed-use project or approving a work assignment with Peacock Architects to assess the development potential of these areas for $25,660. The West Atlantic Master Plan encourages development that supports local businesses, enhances existing neighborhoods, and promotes pedestrian-friendly spaces. This legislation affects local stakeholders, including developers, residents, and businesses, as it aims to revitalize the area, boost economic growth, and increase affordable housing options.
