Sustainable Development Committee June Meeting

Join us for a special Sustainable Development Committee (SDC) meeting on Thursday June 22 at 6-8pm Join by Zoom.  This SDC meeting will be dedicated to presentations from two bidders for the DNI-owned Our Tierra Livri site. 

Dudley Neighbors, Inc. (DNI) has released the Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Our Tierra Livri site, also known as Dudley Miller Park (483-487 Dudley Street). Through this RFP process, DNI seeks a developer for the site that can create a development plan which strengthens the Dudley Corridor business district; serves local residents and businesses; is realistic and financially sustainable over the long-term; and can deliver compensation to DNI for its costs for securing the land, engagement in community planning, conducting preliminary due diligence, and acting as the long-term steward of the property.

The Our Tierra Livri site is the 14,000 square ft. vacant lot near our office on 483-487 Dudley Street with giant wooden letters stating OUR TIERRA LIVRI (English, Spanish and Cape Verdean Creole for Our Liberated Land). The park became a part of the DNI community land trust in December of 2013.
