Neighborhoods and Community Building

The Council continues to focus on ways to cultivate neighborhoods of choice and improve the quality of life for all Ogden residents.

Quality Neighborhoods Initiative


The Quality Neighborhoods Initiative continues to be a budget priority, with $1 million allocated to this effort. The initiative is the City’s plan to stabilize and revitalize Ogden’s neighborhoods by establishing a pattern of public investment that catalyzes desirable and appropriate community development. In redeveloping neighborhoods, creating this investment environment involves building on the bright spots that exist within the neighborhood, while removing impediments to investment.
