Overview: The Homestead Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) recently convened to address a series of community and infrastructural developments. In a move reflective of the current economic climate, the CRA has approved an increase in the maximum assistance provided under the residential Rehabilitation grant program, raising it from $15,000 to $20,000 per house. This increase is designed to accommodate the rise in material and labor costs, allowing for permits and architectural or engineering expenses. The board also authorized substantial grants for individual home improvements and discussed the creation of Homestead Live, an open-air cultural space that promises to be a community nexus for music, art, and culture.
