About the CRA
Charlotte Harbor Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) was established by the Charlotte County Board of County Commissioners by Resolution 92-251 on November 3rd, 1992 by way of Florida Statute 163.356. Since then, a linear park along the shore of Charlotte Harbor on Bayshore Drive has been completed and a new bridge has been built on Melbourne Street with decorative lighting in place. Central sewer and water lines have been installed setting the stage for opportunities for private investment. Specific architectural standards continue to enhance the historic character of the area and encourage pedestrian-friendly development. View More History
