The Redevelopment Division is responsible
for the implementation of the Redevelopment Agency's goals in
accordance with the established Redevelopment Plans in the city.
The Redevelopment Agency board consists of the members of the
City Council.
The mission of redevelopment in the
City of Carson is to eliminate blight in targeted areas through
various efforts to improve or upgrade public and private
properties and to provide programs for economic development. The
Redevelopment Agency is also actively working to remediate and
redevelop Brownfields sites in the city.
The Redevelopment Agency's primary
source of funds is from property tax increment within the
project areas. The funds are then used to provide public
improvements, program support, and to provide financial
incentives for private development of needed low and moderate
income housing and other commercial and industrial development.
By law, the Redevelopment Agency is required to use 20% of its
funds for the preservation, improvement, and provision of
housing for low and moderate income households. The Agency may
utilize other funds through grants and special public programs
to leverage its efforts.
A brief example of some recent
redevelopment assisted projects include: the Home Depot project
on Sepulveda and Main, the Arco Polypropylene plant, much of the
city's streetscape improvements, the South Bay Pavilion Mall
improvements, and many housing projects for seniors and families
such as the Villagio mixed use project on Carson Street and
Camino Village on Main Street.
