Get to Know New CID Board Member Cicely Anderson

Cicely Anderson, Property Manager for Duke Realty, was recently elected to the CID board. Check out our Q&A with Cicely to learn about her goals for the CID community and her vision for the district.

Q: Why did you decide to invest in the Sugarloaf CID?

A: It’s important for Duke Realty to maintain and enhance the area to protect our investments over the long term. Duke was integral to the development of the Sugarloaf area over 20 years ago and has been an investor in the CID from the beginning. As the district has expanded, we have had the opportunity to add more of our properties to the CID so that we can make an even bigger impact.

Q: What CID projects are most important to you?

A: The CID’s cameras with license plate readers have been a great partnership to help the police reduce crime, and we are excited about the new cameras that are being added around our properties as part of the CID’s recent expansion. We are also very excited about the gateway monument sign that will be installed later this year. Finally, transportation and traffic flow improvements are critical to our tenants. The CID has already leveraged millions for transportation improvements, and we have identified a new list of projects to solve traffic challenges in expansion areas. The CID is also working on our trail plan to connect to properties throughout our district.

Q: What is your vision for the future of Sugarloaf?

A: As the area grows with new development and improvements, the Sugarloaf CID will remain a premiere destination that is connected, safe, and attractive.
