Project 84 — Neighborhood Renewal

TOT-P6-C26-004

Worn-out blocks renewed without pushing people out.

Delivery conditions

Detailed schedule is not established in the supplied canonical timeline. Timing shown is v1 editorial sequencing, subject to the source gates.

Neighborhood renewal direction is set by executive authority; property work proceeds only within the operating departments' legal authority, with private-property aid requiring proper legal authority.

The problem

Every Tampa resident knows a block that has been sliding: empty buildings going to seed, overgrown lots, a corridor that used to hum and now just limps. Renewal usually arrives as either neglect or a wave of development that prices people out. Residents deserve a third way.

The plan

Neighborhood Renewal targets the worn-out blocks that the Beautiful City Standard says need it most, with a renewal playbook that treats long-time residents as the point — not an obstacle. The city coordinates cleanup, code care, greening, streetscape, and public-place improvements in one place instead of scattered one-offs.

Renewal work is sequenced with the other Project 84 pillars so a renewed block stays renewed: owner, maintenance cycle, and funded lifecycle plan attached to every improvement, and equity across all 84 neighborhoods measured as it goes.
