and Growth (BIG) Boulevard 26 corridors south of Mid Cities Boulevard in addition to Glenview Drive and Bedford-Euless Road. The BIG
Program - Continuing program is designed to improve the exterior, visibility and presentation of a business. The BIG program is not designed to
Project subsidize corrections to building code violations that prolong the life of a commercial property. Any BIG project should

Loop 820 Redevelopment The North Tarrant Express is bringing added attention and interest from the commercial development community at this key
2010 - Continuing Project North Richland Hills intersection. This project will provide the ability to optimize accessibility and dictate uses with an
emphasis on quality and impact to community. The construction costs associated with creating left turn access from
southbound Rufe Snow via Corona into the southeast corner of Rufe Snow & Loop 820 is also included.

Loop 820 Redevelopment With the North Tarrant Express finalized, continued interest from potential businesses bring a need to facilitate high quality
2016 - Continuing Project uses along the south side of the 820 corridor, just east of Rufe Snow.

Neighborhood The Neighborhood Revitalization Program (NRP) is designed to revitalize neighborhoods by renovating single-family, owner-
Revitalization Program occupied homes in a target zone. By renovating homes, the program will not only boost property values in these
(NRP) - Continuing neighborhoods, but also provide interested single-family home buyers the opportunity to purchase an updated and safe
Project home that they can be proud to own at a reasonable price. This program aims to give such neighborhoods a "facelift" while
continuing to attract responsible citizens.
This program provides a twenty percent (20%) grant of up to $10,000 for the completion of well-designed home renovations
that make a home more aesthetically pleasing and inspire the continued community growth of the neighborhoods in the
program's initial target zone. Both contractors "flipping" homes and residents who currently own homes qualify for this
incentive.
