Goal #5
A Vibrant Community

The City of Tamarac will continually revitalize our neighborhood and business districts.

 Background:
When asked why they decided to move to Tamarac, residents and businesses cite Tamarac's high quality, affordable housing, and safe, attractive neighborhoods and business areas. This is the direct result of a proactive approach taken to ensure that community standards are established and met in Tamarac, allowing us to grow in a way that adds value to our citizens. As growth continues and certain neighborhoods and business districts continue to age, it is imperative that we work together to develop strategies and actions to address the needs of different segments of the community. We must ensure that we develop new property, and redevelop existing property, at a level the City can sustain.

Strategies:

• Be accessible and responsive to our neighborhood and business partners
• Develop an understanding of the unique needs of each neighborhood and commercial area
• Establish pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use corridors
• Provide support and services to ensure communities remain safe and attractive
• Provide a balanced approach to business attraction and retention
