United North held a series of community visioning sessions in 2007 to provide neighborhood residents and businesses the opportunity to assist in planning programs that lead to an improved quality of life for ONE Village residents. By undertaking a structured community planning process involving local residents, businesses and community leaders, the UN is creating a “place based” strategy to improve the community’s quality of life. This comprehensive community development strategy is designed to strengthen the ONE Village community from within – through planning, organizing, and human development – allowing our neighborhood to take better advantage of larger market forces to:
• |
|
Attract retail and housing development to ONE Village |
• |
|
Achieve economic balance in ONE Village neighborhoods |
• |
|
Create stronger connections to city-wide business, employment and educational opportunities. |
The United North visioning sessions resulted in the formation of subcommittees to address issues related to affordable housing, jobs and economic development, education and schools, community facilities, and community safety.
