The expansion in the development of magnetic compressors, roofing materials, cabinetry, gun parts, etc, is leading to an interesting Bainbridge, Thomasville, and Tallahassee manufacturing triangle. Pair this with the expansion of international cargo at Tallahassee International Airport and the possibilities are endless.

In addition to 5 major southside development projects (i.e. Capital Circle SW expansion; U.S. Customs and International Passenger Processing Centers at Tallahassee International Airport; North Florida Laboratory, Interdisciplinary Research and Commercialization Bldg, and Danfoss expansion) currently in the construction phase, the city of Tallahassee is also focused on the implementation of 2 additional southside strategies listed below.

https://www.wtxl.com/news/local-news...e-improvements

Public Safety
The citizens of Tallahassee have expressed concerns about the spike in crime, some of which are generated by non-residents of Leon County. TEAM mobile unit to assist those with mental illnesses, 5 year TEMPO program to provide working wages for youths, arresting those with outstanding warrants, a planned fire station w/community center on Lake Bradford, and FSU-Tallahassee-Leon County Crime Research facilities are tools that will be used to combat crime.

Affordable Housing
The goal of having 2400 affordable housing (throughout the city) in the development, planning, or construction phase by the end of December 2022 was met, with almost 2800 affordable housing on the way to the Tallahassee area. This also means increasing density in the city to provide these housing units (low, extremely low, workforce, and affordable income bracket). More mixed income housing are also being targeted for the southside areas.

Southside Infrastructure
Almost $500 million in infrasture projects over the next 5 years are currently being invested in the Southside (water/sewer, sidewalks, Blueprint, additional street lighting, capital improvements, etc.).

Enhancing development along the Lake Bradford/Springhill Rd corridor
The strategy is to designate this corridor as a Brownfield Site. Developers are apprehensive about investing in contaminated/potentially contaminated sites, perhaps this designation will introduce federal funding for any necessary contamination cleanup. If successful, this will provide incentives for commercial/housing and redevelopment along this route.

Clean Energy Plan 2019
Energy Plan is to reach 100% clean and renewable energy by 2050. Touted as the #1 Public Utility in the country, Tallahassee has constructed 2 solor farms at the airport, received over 350 applications for installation of rooftop solar in 2022, is planning the installation of 3 high speed EV stations, and developing plans to provide incentives to install home electrical charging stations.
