I-95 North/Outer Loop travelers should plan for major delays over the weekend, as very significant traffic impacts will occur.

  • Town of Indian Head Revitalization Strategy
    Town of Indian Head Innovation Center/Mixed Use Development Implementation Strategy Town of Indian Head Innovation Center/Mixed Use Development Implementation Strategy Source: ULI Washington Prepared by: Taylor Yewell, Redevelopment Manager & Michelle DeSoto, Project Coordinator Charles County Economic Development Department February 1, 2017 0 Town of Indian Head Innovation Center/Mixed Use Development Implementation Strategy Executive Summary INTRODUCTION In December, 2016, a stakeholder meeting was held to begin a process to develop a coordinated strategy to revitalize Indian Head. During the meeting, consensus was reached that the Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Division’s (NSWC IHEODTD) “Velocity Lab” project could serve as an effective catalyst for Indian Head’s revitalization efforts, and eventually comprise a key element of a larger, mixed use project. CURRENT CONDITIONS The Indian Head Highway corridor is characterized by a preponderance of vacant and underutilized commercial properties. The condition of several significant buildings warrants demolition, creating the opportunity for redevelopment to new land uses which could positively alter the blighted conditions. SOCIOECONOMIC CHARACTERISTICS With a total employment base of roughly 3,000, Naval Support Facility Indian Head is not only the top employer in Indian Head, but one of the top two employers in Charles County. Indian Head’s population grew 10% from 2010 to 2015, from 3,844 to 4,259. MARKET SUMMARY A Technical Assistance Panel (TAP) conducted by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) in the Fall of 2016 concluded that there are no obvious market-based opportunities for or drivers of development in Indian Head, meaning that public/private partnerships will be crucial despite their difficulty in implementation.
