Last week, our GAI CSG team attended the Florida Redevelopment Association Conference in Tampa, FL, where we had the opportunity to talk with redevelopment professionals and participate in sessions. CSG’s FRA Academy instructors offer congratulations to the newest group of Redevelopment Administrators (FRA-RA) and Redevelopment Professionals (FRA-RP) who received their certifications last week--especially CSG Urban Analytics Manager, Natalie Frazier, MBA! #CommunitySolutionsGrp #FRA2024 #conference

Our Community Solutions Group started the summer with the Onward Kissimmee project, a Comprehensive Plan Update of the city’s land use and transportation element. The project aims to shape the city's growth to prepare for future development and transportation improvements. Through the planning process, we aim to honor the city’s roots and celebrate the places it cherishes while actively listening to the voices of Kissimmee’s citizens. Kissimmee, FL is home to approximately 80,000 residents and is known for its rich diversity and vibrant community. The city's population has steadily grown at a rate of 3-4% annually and includes a significant Hispanic presence. Many residents trace their roots to Puerto Rico, Colombia, Venezuela, and other Latin American countries, contributing to the city's multicultural identity. We kicked off the project with a community meeting featuring four interactive stations. Attendees shared their stories, filled out comment cards about what they love and want to improve in the city, marked places they live, work, and visit on maps, and highlighted areas with growth potential. The event included a mobile tour of eight key destinations, showcasing city elements like neighborhoods, streets, open spaces, and conservation areas while identifying areas for improvement.

Reflecting on a great experience at the Florida Chapter of the American Planning Association (APA Florida) Conference! GAI’s Community Solutions Group had an incredible time at the 2024 Florida APA Conference in Tampa. We exhibited, presented, and proudly sponsored the event, making it a fantastic opportunity to engage with fellow professionals, exchange ideas, and dive deep into the future of housing, parks, and community planning and design. We’re grateful for the inspiring conversations and valuable connections we made throughout the event—a special thanks to our co-presenters and everyone who stopped by the booth. We look forward to reconnecting with everyone at next year’s conference in Daytona Beach!
