(rr <br /> REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL A C Flo <br /> DATE: 01.20.99 <br /> ITEM No: <br /> Department Approval: Manager Approval: Agenda Section: <br /> Ito Description: 1999 Code Administration Strategy <br /> In the fall of 1998 the council and staff set up a tentative schedule to review the strategy <br /> for the 1 999 code Administration strategy. The goal of enforcement of Code provisions <br /> is to maintain and improve upon the visual and aesthetic look of the community. In order <br /> to accomplish this goal, we have attempted to improve upon compliance with code <br /> standards. <br /> The city responded to over 750 land use or nuisance complaints during 1 998, a 00% <br /> increase over 1 997, with a consequent clearance of over 0% (601) of the cases. The <br /> staff has received numerous calls and compliments that, ".,.finally, you are getting to this <br /> W <br /> ssue and helping us solve the problem". Some problems, however, cannot be solved by <br /> staff and codes. They are neighborhood or personality issues that could use an unbiased <br /> third party or peer group to assist — perhaps the City's Human Fights or other citizen <br /> committee would be interested in this challenger <br /> Attached are the background summary reports and charts to illustrate the code <br /> administration program, with some detailed charts on the land use code administration. <br /> We hope this will be an annual opportunity to evaluate the program and provide direction. <br /> Q:1Permits\ComplaintslrcaReport01 2099.doc <br />
