Among the major activities undertaken by the TIFA since its establishment have been the following: ¾ Development of “A Plan for Commercial Revitalization – the Beech Daly Road Central Business District” in 1985, which provided the guidelines for public and private sector improvements along the South Beech Daly corridor, between Van Born and Michigan Avenue. ¾ Improvements to South Beech Daly including street widening, sidewalks, sewer and water construction. The first portion of this activity occurred in the late 1980’s between Van Born and Annapolis. Improvements were continued north to Michigan Avenue as part of a joint community effort with the City of Inkster in the latter part of the 1990’s. ¾ Development of the “City of Dearborn Heights Industrial/Business Park Study” in 1998, followed by the TIFA’s recommendation for rezoning of the southwest quadrant of the TIFA district to M-3 Business Industrial Park District as a means to encourage a broader base
