What Commissioner Jennings says about the CRA Board

CRA- Community Redevelopment Agency. Interviewing for Five of the Seven seats.

This Board is responsible to revitalize the blighted areas of the City. If you have a passion for improving our city from clean-ups to job programs, affordable housing and supporting small businesses, then step right up! The CRA budget is around four million dollars which must be used in the designated redevelopment area of Dixie Highway, Downtown, and neighborhoods west of Dixie.

The CRA has broad options as to how they spend their budget money allowing for great creativity and effective programs, or throwing money at bad projects. Get on the board and help to direct the money towards great programs that benefit the blighted areas of Lake Worth!
