Baltimore County’s Renaissance initiative is a golden opportunity to turn underused or neglected parcels of land into community assets. This involves only properties within the Urban Rural Demarcation Line (URDL) and only where community residents want such redevelopment to take place. This "collaborative" design process involves full community participation in order to ensure certainty that what is planned is what will be built, thus strengthening all of our communities. - To ensure community input from the beginning
- To ensure that the collaborative design process is attractive to developers so that they embrace the community input
- To provide a compressed time model for the pilot projects
- To ensure the process is fair to all participants
- To ensure that the quality of life in Baltimore County is enhanced through the creation of these well-designed, buildable mixed-use redevelopment projects.
