TREC lays out roadmap to fight blight in Dallas

https://www.bizjournals.com/dallas/news ... s_headline

Renovation and expansion of affordable housing, jobs that pay a living wage, workforce development programs and accessible business development capital are among needs identified through a program that aims to turn around three Dallas neighborhoods mired by blight and disinvestment.

The Real Estate Council laid out the plan for improving the areas in a meeting Tuesday afternoon at Old Parkland in Dallas.

The neighborhoods in the program are the Forest District in South Dallas/Fair Park, The Bottom neighborhood in East Oak Cliff and Census tract 205 in West Dallas.

The plan was developed after an extensive data collection push that included documenting housing and demographic trends, public and private investment activity, and affordability. The data collection process assessed community assets and identified development opportunities, surveyed residents, mapped property, analyzed neighborhood trends, and conducted research on local real estate and public investment trends.

For a peer city comparison, in Atlanta the people who have held neighborhoods together for decades are not sharing in the tardy public improvements to these neighborhoods. If we're going to subsidize something at least subsidize commitment to Dallas instead of subsidizing people who disinvested, who now return to chase return$.

Dallas City Council has approved a new housing plan aimed at increasing housing affordability and equity, replacing the Comprehensive Housing Plan. The Dallas Housing Policy 2033 will provide greater fair housing choices, advance racial equity, address equity blind spots and overcome patterns of segregation and concentrations of poverty.

The council has also approved the Dallas Resource Catalog, a companion document consisting of housing programs and funding resources that will drive the city's investments in mixed-income housing. The implementation plan will establish a sustainable community engagement structure, a housing task force, and agreements with internal and external partners.

Only Providence, Buffalo, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh have seen income growth surpass rent increases. Dallas (#11) narrowly avoided being in the top 10 in largest jump in rent between 2009 and 2023.
