Eagle Pass Main Street Program Director Joe Cruz is preparing a proposal of mixed-use real estate tax abatement program in the downtown area. 

This type of development would allow for both commercial and residential habitation in downtown, which could possibly help revive the area that previously saw much more residential interest.  

 Cruz states that such programs exist through many communities across the U.S. and have been effective in assisting areas thrive and compete with other parts of communities. 

 Mixed-use real estate development is a type of urban development that blends residential, commercial, cultural, institutional, or industrial uses, where those functions are physically and functionally integrated, and  provide pedestrian connections. Mixed-use development can take the form of a single building, a city block, or entire neighborhoods. 

The term may also be used more specifically to refer to a mixed-use real estate development project—a building, complex of buildings, or district of a town or city that is developed for mixed-use by a private developer, governmental agency, or a combination thereof.  

Cruz states that the city is in the process of researching long term objectives and goals to be able to revive downtown thrive as it did in the past.
