The Board of Directors and the staff of Re:New DeKalb will lead the development and implementation of strategic initiatives that stimulate, improve, and enhance the Downtown area, creating positive effects for the entire community.
Initial Strategic Initiatives
Our actions are driven by our vision; we identify four key initiatives for our first two years of operation:

Partner with the City of DeKalb in key projects to assign roles efficiently, address issues in redevelopment policy, assemble financial resources, and advocate for Downtown redevelopment.
Ensure visible results in the Downtown
Ensure that the long-term nature of Downtown redevelopment provides visible signs of progress on a regular basis.
Re:New DeKalb is committed to using the Downtown DeKalb Revitalization Plan as the blueprint for moving forward.
Re:New DeKalb will also ensure that Downtown events continue to bring more people into the Downtown on a regular basis.
