Harden Parkway CRA
  The Harden Parkway Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), that has been created by the Polk County Board of County Commissioners in 2004, contains lands located within the south portion of City of Lakeland and unincorporated areas of Polk County.  The County and City have established an Interlocal Agreement to cooperate in creating this single purpose CRA for the specific purpose of eliminating blight on the areas transportation system which currently has adverse impacts upon both County and City governments and the citizenry.  Polk County has the statutory authority to establish a redevelopment area that is within a municipality located within Polk County and is supported by the City of Lakeland in utilizing this approach.  The CRA program is implemented under the direction of the Polk County Board of County Commissioners, who serve as the members of the North Ridge Community Redevelopment Agency.  The CRA Agency also includes two additional members, the City Manager and the Community Development Director of the City of Lakeland.  Please click on this link to review the Harden Parkway CRA Redevelopment Plan.
