What is an Equitable Development Framework Plan?

The City is investing in Hollice T. Williams Park and future improvements will include:

  • Enhanced stormwater
  • Graphic branding and identity
  • Improved amenities and programming

As the City invests, its priority is to make sure that everyone benefits from the area's transformation - especially those in adjecent neighborhoods and others who have previously felt unheard in the process. An Equitable Development Framework Plan will ensure that the park is a driver of inclusive development in the surrounding community. It will do this by:

  • Identifying and committing to key goals or values as decided on by the community
  • Creating an Equitable Development Tool Kit that outlines development strategies and policies for the communities within a ½ mile radius of the park to ensure inclusive development
  • Identifying key projects in the surrounding communities that can contribute to equitable development
