53rd St. TIF Meeting

A friend of HPP has asked me to post an announcement for the upcoming 53rd St. TIF meeting. A lot of interesting stuff is being done with TIF funds on 53rd, including funding for the Clean Slate program and a proposed, and innovative, traffic enhancement district to better manage parking inventory near 53rd and Lake Park. Also of note are the TIF's involvement in the continuing redevelopment of the Cottage Grove corridor.
