Extension of Pro�ram: <br />• HRA approved extending the program in 2009 for an additiona130 days. Staff therefore increased <br />the number of properties inspected in 2009 from 2,700 to 3,159. With a similar extension in 2010, <br />this will allow for completion of the program (inspecting all 8,500 residential properties) in three <br />years instead of the original four years anticipated. <br />Expenses• <br />• 2009 - Budgeted expenses - $16,400.00 <br />One month extension - $3,100.00 <br />Total - $19,500.00 <br />o The extension of the program from 5 to 6 months in 2009 (and 2010) will allow the <br />program to be completed one full year ahead of schedule and reduce overall cost of the <br />program by approximately $10,200.00. <br />Accomplishments: <br />• To date (2008 and 2009) have inspected 5,059 residential properties, observed 339 public nuisance <br />violations, and corrected 326 public nuisances: <br />o Cooperation from the public on correcting public nuisances has been exceptional. 96% <br />have complied with simple letter requests for compliance. Most, who have not complied, <br />have not done so due to financial and/or physical hardship. <br />• Created an informational brochure to educate residents about common public nuisance violations <br />in an effort to minimize violations through education and cooperation: <br />o Each initial letter includes this brochure. <br />o Distributed this brochure to a118,500 residential properties in water bill notices. <br />o This brochure is also included in the City's Welcome Packet. <br />• Including in initial letter additional HRA Program information as well as HRC Program <br />information. <br />• Generating goodwill: <br />o Have received many supportive comments from the public about the Neighborhood <br />Enhancement Program. <br />o League of Women Voters endorsement of the program. <br />• The program helps maintain the livability of neighborhoods. <br />• The program helps maintain the city's tax base. <br />Observations• <br />• Public comment has been overwhelmingly supportive of the program. <br />• This year observing a lower percentage violation rate (6.2% vs. 7.6% in 2008), indicating residents <br />are aware of the program and cooperating when they receive the initial letter. <br />• Still observing where one public nuisance in an area tends to promote more of the same - a <br />clustering effect. <br />• Still observing more violations in neighborhoods of older homes; this is to be expected due to <br />typically smaller lots, smaller garages and older construction. <br />• Some property maintenance cases remain difficult to resolve due to financial/physical hardship by <br />the property owner. Most of the unresolved `pending' cases are of this type. <br />• Remaining `pending' cases will be addressed by requesting authority from City Council to abate <br />the violations if they are not corrected by the property owner in the spring of 2010. <br />• Because of the typical turnover in rental properties, a"renters rules" handout will be created for <br />posting in rental properties in an educational effort to minimize public nuisance occurrences at <br />these homes. <br />� <br />� � .� t`�.�`'�`` d. <br />, .� ,�- . � .d <br />' �� r �s�:�, <br />��'�'x,�p:,a���i � <br />� <br />
