Redevelopment Management Associates (RMA)

What are the nation's mayor's focused on? Economic development was the predominant theme in 50 mayoral “state of the cities” speeches given from January through March 2024, according to the National League of Cities’ eleventh State of the Cities 2024 report, released Wednesday.  Economic development was followed by infrastructure and then housing. For the first time in the report’s history, housing was one of the top three themes in mayoral addresses, which NLC says indicates local leaders’ increasing attention to the housing crisis.  #cities #mayors #economicdevelopment #infrastructure #housing https://lnkd.in/en-8SPmB

RMA is very proud of the tremendous growth in the City of West Columbia, SC. Our team created the original plans in 2018, which guided the city’s redevelopment. Now, post-pandemic, our team along with our colleagues at Renee Miller Consulting Group, returned to provide a fresh assessment with new innovative strategies and key initiatives to sustain the city’s forward vision.  We recently presented two new plans, the Citywide Redevelopment Plan and our Community Revitalization Plan 2024 Updates, which were both approved by the West Columbia City Council. We can’t wait to see what happens in the next 5 years! #westcolumbia #weco #lexingtoncounty #southcarolina #economicdevelopment #redevelopment #businessattraction #governmentrealestate
