“RMA is excited to partner with Bartow as they embark on their next chapter of growth,” said Chris Brown, RMA Principal. “Bartow’s strategic central location within the state presents a wealth of economic development opportunities. Our team is eager to identify and analyze prime sites to maximize their potential and contribute to the community’s continued success.”
RMA has consulted with numerous cities, counties, and CRA Districts throughout the state creating economic development plans that capitalize on each area’s authentic strengths, while enhancing the quality of life of residents for decades to come. Feasibility studies are particularly rewarding as they provide data-driven insights into a variety of current factors including market demand, infrastructure, public-private-partnership potential, and more. After careful analysis, RMA’s report will provide recommendations that will maximize the chances of successful redevelopment, while mitigating risks.
The City of Bartow, appropriately named “City of Oaks and Azaleas,” has a population of approximately 19,000, and is the county seat of Polk County, which is one of Florida’s geographically largest counties, with more than 725,000 residents as of the 2020 US Census.
