The Downtown Maitland Revitalization Plan has two key focus areas that are integral components to revitalizing the downtown Maitland area. These areas of focus are the Focus on Neighborhoods and the Focus on Infrastructure.
Focus on Neighborhoods
The health, prosperity and vitality of our neighborhoods defines the very fabric of our community. The focus on Neighborhoods area of the DMRP highlights how to improve the quality of life and address neighborhood concerns regarding: Neighborhood Identity; Transportation Issues; Aesthetics; Maintenance; and Lighting Issues. A detailed Neighborhood Master Plan was developed to outline the proposed physical improvements to the neighborhood and is included in the DMRP.
Focus on Infrastructure
The major objectives of the Infrastructure portion of the plan is to alleviate existing deficiencies in levels of service in order to encourage redevelopment in Downtown Maitland while making Maitland an attractive place to conduct business, live, shop and play. Specific infrastructure features addressed by the DMRP include: Relocation of utilities underground and improving electric power reliability; improving potable water capacity to service desired uses and to provide for required flows and fire needs of developments; improvements to the Sanitary Sewer system; and the creation of regional stormwater facilities to promote and facilitate in-fill redevelopment in downtown Maitland.
