The Redevelopment Agency of Centerville City continues to manage several specialized project areas designed to foster economic and commercial growth, utilizing tax increment tools to fund infrastructure and land acquisition. Centerville officials maintain various development zones, including the Legacy-Crossing Community Development Area, to support the long-term evolution of the city's property landscape.
Redevelopment Agency Functions
The Redevelopment Agency (RDA) of Centerville City, a separate legal entity established in 1989, serves as a primary vehicle for the city's commercial and economic development. By utilizing tax increment generated by properties within designated project areas, the RDA is authorized to fund essential infrastructure, purchase land, and provide other forms of assistance to facilitate property development.
Key Project Areas
The RDA manages several distinct areas to meet different community needs. This includes the Parrish Lane Gateway Project Area, which by state law was scheduled to exist through 2021. Other active areas managed by the agency include the Porter-Walton Development Area and the Barnard Development Area. These zones allow the city to target specific sectors for growth and revitalization through strategic investment.
Legacy-Crossing Development
One of the agency's primary focus areas is the Legacy-Crossing Community Development Area, which was created by the RDA in 2010. This area relies on the tax increment mechanism to support the development of properties within its boundaries. Through these targeted investments, the agency aims to create a cohesive economic environment that supports the broader goals of the city's development strategy.
