The purpose of this plan is to generate a resident-driven and stakeholder-supported plan for neighborhood revitalization that improves resident quality of life and is tied to the improvements slated for downtown and the City of Camden as a whole. This neighborhood plan also connects various previous planning efforts and is a critical step in the City of Camden’s development of a neighborhood redevelopment plan, as part of the City. Smart Surface language includes a Green and Complete Streets pilot (trees, planters, bioswales), urban meadows, and green stormwater infrastructure to combat urban flooding.
