The Bradenton Downtown Development Authority (DDA) is preparing a 5-year Master Plan vision for the Bradenton Community Redevelopment Agency (BCRA), which includes Downtown Bradenton.  To view the study area please click here.  The CRA is specifically interested in creating a community-based vision to create a successful urban place that addresses:

  • Community Character
  • Traffic and Circulation
  • Current Land Use and Urban Design Practices
  • Open Space Opportunities
  • Market Analysis

The DDA formed a Steering Committee to help with the vision plan.  The Committee is made up of the DDA Board of Directors and representatives from the Manatee Chamber of Commerce, the City of Bradenton, local neighborhoods, and the arts and business communities.

The goal of the project is to identify the physical and economic opportunities and challenges associated with the study area and develop plans and strategies for success.  The planning effort is intended to provide a broad foundation and public consensus for planning, regulatory and economic principles that are appropriate for the City of Bradenton’s downtown and its surrounding neighborhoods.
