City Committees

    Redevelopment Ready Committee

    The Redevelopment Ready Communities® (RRC)Program is a state-wide certification program that supports communities to become development ready and competitive in today’s economy. It encourages communities to adopt innovative redevelopment strategies and efficient processes which build confidence among businesses and developers. Through the RRC program, local municipalities receive assistance in establishing a solid foundation for development to occur in their communities – making them more attractive for investments that create places where people want to live, work and play.

    Through the RRC best practices, communities build deliberate, fair and consistent development  processes from the inside out. RRC provides the frame work and benchmarks for communities to strategically and tactically ask “What can we do differently?” By shifting the way municipalities approach development, they’re reinventing the way they do business – making them more attractive for investments that create places where talent wants to live, work and visit.
