20-POINT PLAN
Economic Development (3 points)
District 4 needs economic development, but it must be the right type of development. We must demand high-quality developments that are worthy of the residents of District 4.
- Revitalize Major Shopping Centers and Corridors
- Lancaster-Kiest, Glendale, Crest Shopping Center, Deer Path, and the former Minyard’s at Marsalis & Illinois
- Samuell Boulevard, Buckner Boulevard, Jim Miller Road
- Beckley Avenue, Illinois Avenue
- Focus on Transit-Oriented Development
- Locate retail and office space around transit stops. A variety of housing and shopping options should be located within a close distance, reducing negative effects on the environment and improving options for residents without cars
- Lancaster-Kiest Station, Morrell Transit Center, Illinois/Monroe Shops Station, Dallas Zoo Station
- New Shopping and Entertainment Options
- Focus on bringing a movie theater and new quality supermarkets to District 4
- “Good Growth Initiative” - Better uses, better variety and mix of stores
