| 22 | 2022 | House | Pete Aguilar | Aguilar | Pete | Transportation, Housing and Urban Development | Downtown Upland Main Street Economic Recovery and Revitalization Project | DOWNTOWN UPLAND MAIN STREET ECONOMIC RECOVERY AND REVITALIZATION PROJECT | The 1906 Upland Downtown Business District needs essential infrastructure investment to revitalize economic development and increase local restaurant, retail, and service businesses support in a designated disadvantaged community area that has been negatively impacted by the COVID pandemic, and is located in a CDBG census tract.This funding will improve alternative transportation method use and provide enhanced network circulation and public safety. These improvements will assist struggling local businesses located within a disadvantaged community by creating an attractive, safe, and inviting downtown for local shopping, dining, and community services. Enhancing commerce in Historic Downtown Upland will benefit the community and make these local businesses sustainable and desirable. Upland’s land uses has limited commercial and industrial tax base; thus, providing the investment to achieve a strong growing local business economy in our downtown is essential for ensuring vital sale tax revenue is achieved to cover the essential community services like public safety, public works maintenance, senior services and literacy services, public recreational areas, etc. are maintained. These local government essential services are basic quality of life necessities.In addition to assisting struggling local businesses and local government in the Congressional District, the project will draw visitors from outside of the area via the Metrolink Railway and other transit systems to explore Downtown Upland and spend money in this western part of the Congressional District and San Bernardino County. These improvements will elevate commerce in a disadvantaged community within the Congressional District and assist in local job growth through an increased level of interest in local commercial services. | 1000000 |
