The Organization partnered with the City of Indianapolis and Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce to prepare and submit a USDOT Reconnecting Communities Pilot Program grant application, a first-of-its-kind initiative to reconnect communities that were cut off from economic opportunity and burdened by past transportation infrastructure decisions.The Organization received 65 letters of support for the application, which would fund a study of Planning Study focused on the southeast leg of the Interstate I-65/I-70 Indianapolis Downtown Inner Loop and the surrounding communities. The Organization was awarded the grant in the spring of 2023. 0 0 The Organization hosted or participated in over 250 stakeholder meetings and presentations, reaching over 1,000 people. The objective for these meetings and presentations was to engage stakeholders in a community conversation about options of rebuilding the city's urban highways using recessed construction. The meetings and presentations were also designed to provide general education about urban highway infrastructure design and engage community members in discussions about alternatives. Expenses for meeting spaces and materials distributed at these meetings were donated. The Organization also engaged the community in focus group conversations about one area of the I-65/I-70 urban interstate that the Indiana Department of Transportation will be repairing as part of its I-65 SAFE Project. The Organization collected community input and prepared a report that will be submitted to INDOT as a community response. 0 0 The organization raised funds to develop new visuals and illustrations to help educate the public about how rebuilding the I-65/I-70 Interstate Inner Loop with recessed construction could reconnect communities and change the urban landscape. The visuals contrast Indianapolis' interstate infrastructure with the interstate infrastructure in several other cities, show the acreage of land impacted by the current elevated highway that would be available for equitable economic development, and how a recessed highway would enable greater connectivity and multi-modal transportation options for people who live in, work in, and visit the city. 29750 29750 29750 Charlie Richardson Co-Chair and Secretary 25 0 0 0 Russell Menyhart Co-Chair 2 0 0 0 Brenda Freije CEO and President 25 27300 0 0 Taylor Hughes Director 4 0 0 0 Kevin Osburn Director 3 0 0 0 Bruce Buchanan Director 1 0 0 0 Jennifer Baskerville-Burroughs Director 1 0 0 0 Marjorie Kienle Director 1 0 0 0 Stacia Murphy Director 1 0 0 0 Lourenzo Giple Director 1 0 0 0 Jefferson Shreve Director and Treasurer 2 0 0 0 Adairius Gardner Director 1 0 0 0 Sarah Hempstead Director 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 IN Brenda Freije 8410 Sargent Road Indianapolis IN 46256 3178500141 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X X X 3 Historic Landmarks Foundation of Indiana Inc 351162873 7 1 0 0 Central Indiana Community Foundation Inc 825223648 7 1 0 0 The Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce Inc 350412920 10 1 0 0 3 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 Schedule A, Part IV, Section A, Line 3b The organization annually confirms the 501(c)(6) organization's status with the 501(c)(6) organization's officers.
