Summary:
Project DTO-Advancing Downtown Orlando was initiated in April 2014 as a comprehensive visioning process to formulate the next chapter of Downtown Orlando’s evolution. The process emphasized significant public and stakeholder outreach, including unique tactics to gain insight into the community’s needs and interests. The process engaged two volunteer stakeholder groups, the 71- member fact-finding Task Force and the 26-member Executive Advisory Committee which guided development of the Project DTO work products, including the attached DTOutlook, the 2015 Update to the Downtown Orlando Community Redevelopment Area Plan. DTOutlook is a comprehensive, strategic roadmap for the CRA’s implementation of various projects, programs, investments, and strategies for the redevelopment of Downtown Orlando. The Downtown Orlando Community Redevelopment Area Plan was first adopted in 1982 and has undergone five previous amendments. The proposed DTOutlook will be the sixth amendment to the Plan.
At its meeting on April 6, 2015, the Executive Advisory Committee reviewed the DTOutlook and recommended CRA approval. Additionally, on April 22, 2015, the CRA Advisory Board recommended approval of the DTOutlook and the forwarding of the DTOutlook to the CRA and City Council for approval.
A copy of the DTOutlook is available in the City Clerk's Office. |
