BoardCity Of Youngstown Urban Renewal Plan
The General Neighborhood Renewal Plan for the Near Eastside of Youngstown aims to eliminate blight, prevent its reoccurrence, and promote sound redevelopment. Key strategies include acquiring blighted and vacant properties, relocating residents, demolishing vacant structures, rezoning the area from residential to Industrial Green (IG), and marketing the land for light industrial uses. The plan envisions transforming the area into a viable industrial business park, generating new property taxes and creating jobs.
