Department: CRA Board Summary: The Cape Canaveral CRA has historically supported a range of redevelopment projects aimed at economic development, infrastructure, residential improvements, and community revitalization. Given the significant population of veterans in our area and their unique needs, I would like to propose that a dedicated portion of CRA funding be earmarked to support veteran- focused initiatives. I am requesting that we explore the feasibility and impact of allocating a designated percentage of CRA Grant Program funds toward initiatives, services, or projects that support veterans residing in the Cape Canaveral CRA district.
