  • 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and Annual
    Demo The City of Evansville is requesting to align the Art's District and Jacobsville District NRSAs timelines with the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan Executive Summary ES-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction The City of Evansville, Indiana is pleased to submit to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) its 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan. Project goals outlined in the plan were determined through citizens' participation at three public meetings where participants discussed community development and housing needs, including the completion of a survey. Due to COVID-19 and the suspension of public contact the 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan was displayed on the City of Evansville website. The Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice (AI) prepared by Prosperity Indiana provided a summary of the existing fair housing condition in Evansville, with five-year remediation goals. A marketing plan of the public service area, Evansville, prepared by Bowens National Research provided housing data on the existing PSA and five submarkets; Central Area, Near East, East, North, and West, including three submarkets of the Central Area; Arts District, Downtown District, and Jacobsville District. Through the use of these tools Evansville will be able to carry out reasonable community and housing goals with positive outcomes. Evansville Indiana, established in 1812, today is the third-largest city in the state of Indiana with an estimated population of 117,429. Situated along the scenic Ohio River, Evansville is centrally located providing highway access to and from major cities; Indianapolis, Indiana is 170 miles north via Interstate 69, Louisville, Kentucky is 120 miles east via Interstate 64, St.

    DEPARTMENT Fall 2017 Vol. 1 MUSIC MAGAZINEof From the Chair It’s no exaggeration for me to say that it has been an exciting year for the Department of Music. Performances by musical and cultural icons, teaching and student awards, and events that engage with our com- munity are just a few of the oppor- tunities that our students experienced in the course of this academic year. Among the many accomplishments and activities you will discover in the following pages, I’m pleased to share news that the Depart- ment of Music received word of its re-accreditation with the National Association of Schools of Music in July. UE is among only 20 percent of institutions accepted by NASM’s highly selective accreditation process. Our membership represents an endorse- ment of the quality of programs and degrees available in our department. Our accreditation is the culmination of a multi-year process and the work of numerous members of our faculty and staff. Many thanks for their efforts! One outgrowth of our accreditation process has been departmental strategic planning, about which you can find more details on the following page. Needless to say, the engagement of our friends, students, alumni, faculty, and administrators in this process has been both an energizing experience, and a source of great ideas that will guide many of our efforts in the coming years. Wylie Wins Teaching Award Another result has been the decision to make the historic Victory Mary Ellen Wylie, professor of music therapy, was named Theatre the home for many of our large ensemble concerts.

    MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN We enthusiastically accept our responsibility to serve the communities where we live and work, both as individuals and corporate citizens. Both Vectren and The Vectren Foundation play an instrumental role in “walking the talk” – providing more than $2 million in grants to help support the operation of and the programs offered by the many valuable not-for-profit organizations that make our communities strong. And a large number of these grants were accompanied by volunteer time and leadership by Vectren employees living our corporate value: community. Our communities are facing significant challenges these days. The resources of many nonprofit organizations are being stretched to the limit as they attempt to address community needs. The Vectren Foundation believes communities must have a strong social infrastructure to thrive, so we continue to focus our giving on health and human services, civic and community development and education as well as arts and culture to help the nonprofits stretch their resource dollars. Beginning in late 2007 and continuing into the future, an increasing number of Foundation grants are helping communities focus more on our environment and educating customers on how to conserve energy as well as natural resources. We believe this new strategic focus will help to shift our collective behavior, so we all will be in a position to mitigate our growing energy use and increasing energy costs. I am proud of the many Vectren employees who are contributing their time, talent and leadership to nonprofit organizations. These employees are helping to guide charitable organizations to become more focused with their strategies, more efficient with their delivery and even more sustainable to better serve their clients.

    Fall 2018 Vol. 1 DEPARTMENT MUSIC MAGAZINEof From the Chair The passage of time in an academic set- ting is measured in any number of ways. We count down the years toward gradu- ation, semesters per academic year, weeks until fall or spring break, days before a junior or senior recital, and even (and perhaps particularly) minutes until the end of a rehearsal or class! We also mark time based on changes in leadership. This fall we celebrate one of those changes, welcoming a new president, Christopher Pietrusz- kiewicz to the University. We look ahead to a new era of excellence, growth, and possibility for UE. As we look to the future, we see an opportunity to celebrate some of the accomplishments of the past decade, and you’ll find a ret- rospective on pages 3 and 4 of this issue. In compiling our list, we found it greatly rewarding to see all of the accomplishments of our students, alumni, and faculty. To acknowledge everyone is an impossible task, so my sincere apologies to any who may not be included. On behalf of the department, I must also acknowledge the impact of our generous friends, who supported our endeavors. I hope all of you feel our sincere thanks for your support. Looking ahead to the coming academic year, we’re excited about our new freshman class, and also about the many events we’ll share with them and the rest of the UE and Evansville communi- ties. We look forward to performances by world-class artists like André Watts and Allen Vizzutti, and classes by master teachers like Jeremy Dittus and Tessa Lark.

    About The Airport Evansville Regional Airport is a commercial service airport that has seen significant growth and extensive improvements over the last decade. A $65 million runway relocation project was completed in 2014 in order to improve Runway Safety Areas. Reconstruction of the Airport’s General Aviation ramp is currently underway to improve the corporate aviation experience. A State-funded, multi-county Regional Cities project included $5 million set-aside to aid in the Airport’s $20 million terminal renovation, which will be completed by the end of 2018, improving the passenger experience with a new security checkpoint, updated modern restaurant, larger business lounge and other passenger amenities. Local economic development and air service growth has spurred a more than 35 percent increase in enplanements since 2009, reaching over 220,000 enplanements in 2017. EVV is served by four airlines: American Airlines, which serves Charlotte, Dallas Ft. Worth, and Chicago O’Hare, Delta, which serves Atlanta and Detroit, United, which serves Chicago O’Hare, and Allegiant, which serves Orlando-Sanford and seasonal flights to Destin. Tri-State Aero operates the airport’s FBO which offers maintenance, charter, fueling services and hangar rental. A 2012 study found that Evansville Regional Airport had an economic impact of over $900 million to the local community. This is supported by a region that believes that EVV is not only a gateway to the world, but also Evansville’s front door. EVV’s landside development zone, Air Commerce Park, has a diversified portfolio of tenants and is still being developed. Currently, it includes a one million square-feet warehouse and a Foreign Trade Zone building.
