Newark surveying residents on how to spend $10 million in DRI funds

Newark residents are being surveyed on how they want to spend $10 million dollars in state Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) Funds.


The survey is aimed at helping the local DRI planning committee understand the public’s perception of downtown and to find out what residents see as the most needed improvements.
