The Basics of CRA's in Volusia County
CRAs - Community Redevelopment Agency/Areas - are either a beneficial
tool of local governments or a political shell game whose outcomes seldom
justify their cost.
In order to make judgements as to which they are (or if they're a little of
both), GovStuff has posted two useful documents you can browse by
clicking
here. The first is a summary of the structure and listing of CRAs in Volusia
and Flagler counties. The second, a primer on why they exist and how they
work, written some time ago by Volusia Realtor and civic leader Steven
Koenig. Let us know your thoughts.
