Every time Conservative Republicans push government intervention - something true conservatives would never do - like those who dominate politics here in Mesa, the most conservative in America, alarm bells go off.
Is this the local Crony Political Machine in-action under the cover of "revitalization" all over again to rescue undisclosed business connections or invested interests in real estate speculation to benefit "highly-influential people" ?
This time approval will go to the Mesa City Council not the voters, who in one first instance rejected tax increases. Now in the second instance, spearheaded by the Mesa Office of Economic Development, to ask for consent to a plan to give away tax "incentives" to property owners and developers to remediate long-ignored conditions that are outlined in criteria below.
KEEP IN MINDThe RDA must exhibit a predominance of blighted conditions.
This designation is NOT intended as a reflection of specific properties in the Area.
For property owners: The City of Mesa does NOT record a property's inclusion in a RDA.
The approval Process only goes forward like this: [this survey is part of "public outreach"]
- Parcel Survey / Data Gathering
- Public Outreach
- City Council makes formal designation
- Begin Crafting Redevelopment Plan
- City Council adopts Redevelopment Plan
"Blighted Area" means an area where a predominance of the properties experience any of the following:
- Dominance of defective or inadequate street layout
- Faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility or usefulness
- Unsanitary or unsafe conditions
- Deterioration of site or other improvements
- Diversity of ownership (by block)
- Tax or special assessment delinquency
- Defective or unusual conditions of title
- Improper or obsolete subdivision platting
- Existence of conditions that endanger life or property by fire and other causes
Mesa Southwest RDA Questionnaire #1
Welcome to the Southwest RDA Questionnaire #1!
What are our Problems for the area?

These are the types of questions that were asked during the first Public Listening Session, and of stakeholders during the week of November 7th.
These are the types of questions that were asked during the first Public Listening Session, and of stakeholders during the week of November 7th.
As part of the Southwest RDA Redevelopment Plan, we are looking to the community to help us identify those problems, opportunities and overall vision for the area. If you missed us at these events, this survey is another opportunity to provide feedback during this stage of the project.
