Revitalization Resource Kit

The Revitalization Resource Kit is a collection of tools, guidance, and resources designed to help communities, organizations and local leaders plan and implement neighborhood or corridor revitalization efforts.

Affordable Housing

To make housing options more affordable across the city, a variety of different price points need to be available in the same area to help ensure that residents who are currently part of the community can still afford to live there.

Quality of Life, Transportation & Healthy Food Access

When a community has what it needs, it thrives. Access to nearby retailers, grocery stores, and walkable surroundings are critical to a neighborhood’s overall health.

Storytelling & Data

This initiative will use cutting-edge data to inform neighborhood strategies and tell the broader business story of each individual San Antonio community.

Support for Entrepreneurship & Small Business

Small businesses, “mom and pop” establishments, and local entrepreneurs are the heart of San Antonio. This initiative and its partnerships will help businesses like these grow and thrive.

Community Partnerships & Capacity-Building

San Antonio’s efforts are all about partnerships, both local and national, that will empower communities to reach their fullest potential.

Small-Scale Development & Resources

Small-scale development allows communities to grow gradually in size and scale, creating long-term change that still preserves the existing characteristics and personality of the area.

Neighborhoods & Placemaking

Each of San Antonio’s neighborhoods has its own personality, and those characteristics should be promoted and celebrated by locals and visitors alike.

Access to Capital

With access to capital that doesn’t require an immediate return on their investment, new development and projects that are more focused on community needs can become a reality.

Community Education & Empowerment

The community is in the driver’s seat, with the City and its partners helping educate stakeholders to better attract the types of development opportunities that could help the neighborhood meet its goals.
