Choice Grantees, 2016
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This polygon shapefile represents the boundaries of Choice grantee recipients as of April 2016. The Seattle Housing Authority was awarded two implementation grants for the Yesler Terrace development. The applicant submitted slightly differing shapes during the 2010-2011 and 2012 application process. This layer shows the shape of the target area as submitted by the applicant for the 2012 round of funding. Choice Neighborhoods grants build upon the successes of public housing transformation under HOPE VI to provide support for the preservation and rehabilitation of public and HUD-assisted housing, within the context of a broader approach to concentrated poverty. In addition to public housing authorities, the initiative will involve local governments, non-profits, and for-profit developers in undertaking comprehensive local planning with residents and the community.
- Purpose
- This layer is intended for researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production. This layer will provide a basemap for layers related to socio-political analysis, statistical enumeration and analysis, or to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. More advanced user applications may focus on demographics, urban and rural land use planning, socio-economic analysis and related areas (including defining boundaries, managing assets and facilities, integrating attribute databases with geographic features, spatial analysis, and presentation output.)
