Agency official summarized program-level activity funded under the CRA, including housing rehabilitation, business façade grants and the retail build‑out matching program. The presenter said the housing rehab and business façade programs continue to show strong appetite and that newer programs such as driveway/paint and build‑out grants add flexibility without a separate line-item request.
On workforce and outreach, the presenter said the summer youth employment program has graduated more than 230 participants who have taken paid internships with nonprofits and city partners, and that the Winter Park Business Academy has served roughly 761 participants over four years. "We've had Creole Day in the summer…we've had the community center in the summer," the Agency official said, noting some internships have translated into full‑time city jobs.
