<br />Actions and Initiatives
<br />1) Encourage redevelopment in target areas through programs that target
<br />lots that are abandoned or have recently demolished structures so that
<br />those lots are put back onto the market and tax rolls.
<br />2) Consider forming a target -area community investment program focused
<br />on all infrastructure improvements (e.g., sidewalk installation in addition
<br />to repair, driveway culvert cleaning and replacement, alley
<br />improvements, tree trimming, parking restrictions, shielded street
<br />lighting or other improved pedestrian lighting, added greenspace,
<br />improved public streetscape/ landscape areas, new signage, etc.) within
<br />at -risk neighborhoods. This would be an expansion of the current
<br />program that provides dedicated funding for sidewalk repair and
<br />maintenance. The purpose of this program is to provide a dedicated
<br />source of annual funding for use in making infrastructure improvements
<br />and leveraging private reinvestment through rehabilitation,
<br />building additions, and/or infill development.
<br />3) Consider the use of tax abatement, reduced building
<br />permit or utility tap fees, and other financial programs or
<br />incentives to elicit private sector reinvestment.

<br />of an advocacy program to aid in code compliance (e.g., violations
<br />such as weeds, debris, and junk vehicles) rather than citing
<br />noncompliant property owners. A key element may be the cross -
<br />training of enforcement advocacy officers in conflict
<br />management/resolution or the creation of useful information
<br />packets listing sources of help for homeowners who are in
<br />violation of City codes.

<br />6)5).......... Promote neighborhood pride by stimulating resident
<br />involvement in improvement activities, including:
<br />a) Seasonal "clean up, fix up" events;
<br />b) "Neighborhood Pride" days focusing on beautification; and
<br />c) Annual "amnesty pickup" days of large refuse items with the
<br />assistance of City crews and volunteers.
<br />7)6)Seek the participation of churches, civic organizations, schools, and
<br />businesses in neighborhood improvement and revitalization efforts.
