This workgroup is committed to finding strategies that better connect area citizens, from all neighborhoods and backgrounds, to existing and future education, workforce training and economic development related resources and opportunities.
Safety and cleanliness are interwoven. A poorly maintained neighborhood is often a magnet for crime, abandonment, rodent infestation, and fire-related incidents. Residents, businesses, and City agencies must work together to coordinate addressing vacancies, sanitation problems, and public safety concerns.
