Both Imagine Roseville 2025 and the City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan <br />support property maintenance as a means by which to achieve neighborhood stability. The Housing <br />section of Imagine Roseville suggests that the City "implement programs to ensure safe and well - <br />maintained properties." In addition, the Land Use chapter (Chapter 3) and the Housing and <br />Neighborhoods chapter (Chapter 6) of the Comprehensive Plan support the City's efforts to maintain <br />livability of the City's residential neighborhoods with specific policies related to property maintenance <br />and code compliance. Policy 6.1 of Chapter 3 states that the City should promote maintenance and <br />reinvestment in housing and Policy 2.6 of Chapter 6 guides the City to use code - compliance activities <br />as one method to prevent neighborhood decline. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACTS <br />City Abatement: <br />An abatement would encompass the following: <br />• Moving and storage costs for the mechanical equipment for pools and landscaping <br />business, and junk and debris stored under tarps in the rear yard. <br />Total: $2,500.00. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
