Kansas City, Kansas
Client
Unified Government of Wyandotte County
Description
Residents, community groups, stakeholders, local businesses, planners and those passionate about the neighborhoods that comprise the Northeast Area undertook the comprehensive planning needed to transform the area into a more viable and sustainable mixed-income community that supports positive outcomes for all its residents. A planning process rooted in listening and learning forged the plan’s strategies, which are aimed at building stronger local relationships, increasing job opportunities, improving local housing and services, and addressing neighborhood safety and infrastructure. These strategies are organized around the themes of A Rich History, A Food Hub, A Healthy Community and An Expanded Economy.
