Position Papers
Revitalization of Downtown Martinez
Revitalizing Downtown Martinez through partnerships with city staff, landlords, and the Main Street Martinez Program to bring in a mixture of national name and small independent businesses that fill unmet needs, but fit into existing building space.
The Dangers of a Redevelopment Agency
The sweeping powers granted to redevelopment agencies by state law, coupled with a lack of public oversight of these agencies is a dangerous combination that will do more harm than good to downtown Martinez.
