Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Dependent Special District
The mission of the CRA is to implement the Community Redevelopment Plan as adopted by the Naples City Council pursuant to Chapter 163, Part III of the Florida Statutes.
The CRA will use Tax Increment Financing (TIF) as a source of funding for capital improvement projects identified in the plan and will ensure that development within the CRA district meets the quality standards consistent with the community's vision for Naples.
The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) is governed by a Board comprised of the members of City Council, with assistance from the Community Redevelopment Agency Advisory Board (CRAAB), consisting primarily of property and/or business owners from the redevelopment area appointed by City Council.
