The Bartow Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) is governed by a seven-member board appointed by the Bartow City Commission. The Board is responsible for oversight of redevelopment policy, financial stewardship, and implementation of the adopted CRA Redevelopment Plan.
We focus our efforts on four key areas that make the greatest impact on quality of life and economic vitality.
We target underutilized, vacant, or deteriorated properties, transforming them into assets that benefit the entire community.
From affordable homes to workforce housing, we support projects that meet the needs of Bartow families at all income levels.
We help businesses grow through grants, infrastructure improvements, and incentives that attract new investment and jobs.
Public spaces, streetscapes, and historic preservation are at the heart of making Bartow a unique and welcoming place.
