• Provide HOUSING– Various sizes, styles & pricing– For elderly, teachers, police & firemen
• ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT– Small Business Development (in center)– R&D/Lt. Industrial (gateways/Surrett)

Where are the best places?
• Combine uses for synergy…Schools, Civic Buildings and Commerce…
• Professional offices near City Hall…they all need to eat lunch…and go to Post Office…
• High School football…stop for pizza/ice cream…go to the Library…
