Council's Strategic Goal
• #2 We will aggressively proceed with
implementation of City's redevelopment plans:
• Success Targets:
Private redevelopment will expand and improve.
• Opportunity Site redevelopment will commence
• EDA owned properties redevelopment will proceed
expeditiously
Council's Ongoing Goal
• #5 We will improve the image of the City with
citizens and those outside of the City's border.
Success Targets:
• Citizens and others throughout the State will
recognize Brooklyn Center as a safe, quality,
attractive community to live work and play.
Joint Meeting with City Council-Tuesday, April 6, 2010
The Housing Commission wishes to contribute with success targets to the
Strategic Goals.
S.G.3. We will stabilize and improve residential neighborhoods
Citizens will benefit from a diverse stock of housing types and styles (d.o.1)
Success targets that the Housing Commission would like to contribute are
numbers 3 and 4.
Success target 3. Housing and accommodations for seniors will be available for
aging residents consistent with the demand for housing by this demographic
group.
The Housing Commission could prepare housing options for seniors to include
adult, assisted living, co-op, and memory care. Back in 2004, the housing
commission was tasked with reviewing all senior housing options. Our group
went on several field trips to explore varied types of housing, evaluated services
provided, safety features, building materials, etc. This information was compiled
and submitted to city council for review back in January 2005. Quality senior
housing is an on-going need in our city and the housing commission will be happy
to work on this project; however, we will require guidance and support from city
council and staff with concise expectations.
Success target 4. There will be new housing construction to accommodate the
needs of those seeking modern housing and move up choices.
The Housing Commission would like to examine current housing trends and
prepare a report highlighting some of the most preferred considerations when
choosing anew home or remodeling. Our commission would be happy to assist
with this project upon direction from city council and staff.
