“OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Community Awareness- In 2017, Midtown provided ongoing engagement with the previously published Midtown Future Plan, the Great Places 2020 Plan at Maple Crossing, and the Marion County Land Use Plan. Efforts focused on public education surrounding changing market and demographic data, and key public infrastructure projects. Specific awareness initiatives focus on program planning and outreach related to the programming, operations, and maintenance of Tarkington Park. This effort engaged hundreds of community residents in planning the future operations of the newly built park in coordination with consultants specializing in such planning. Midtown participated in several dozen land use cases pending before the Metropolitan Development Commission for Indianapolis to express community concerns and/or support for projects and the impact they may have on particular neighborhoods. Other awareness initiatives included education and outreach related to area population destabilization, particularly the migration of families with school age children away from our region of the city, and the resulting decline the tax base, the increased vacancy of commercial property and ongoing blight and deterioration issues that result from population decline. Midtown staff also participated in numerous committees (Plan 2020 and Great Places 2020, Bus Rapid Transit Planning for two key transit routes, Red Line, and Purple Line) and other community wide planning efforts related to health, public safety, education, and infrastructure which impact our primary service area. Additional efforts included educational briefings with key stakeholders including leadership of area educational and cultural institutions, commercial real estate brokers and developers, and key area employers.
